Notes Dev team:
Client 85 install
It will take forever to install because of all the eclispe crap, in some instances.. a hour!!!
Client load times:
Most of the times.. it's slow, but it does load.
Sometimes, it keeps "loading" and stays on the loading screen. After 2-3 minutes the splash screen disappears, but Nothing shows up.
Reinstall of the client is required. It's all the eclipse crap that you preload, whether it's being used or not. Widgets, RSS, blah blah.
I have seen it.. "checking for new mail" on load and after the splash screen disappers.. nothing. Why in the heck would you check for new mail on program load? The is a individual function. When Notes load fully, THEN check mail, not before the shell even loads up!!!
I've about 30 corp users as a test install and we had plans to rollout this version, but the number one complaint - slow load times.. slow responsiveness.... The UI is nice.. but it's just too damn slow.
If I start the same client use the -basic switch..BINGO..were in immediately.
Designer.. OMG, where do I start?
It will take forever and a day just to load a app that exists on the local PC. "Refreshing....." - uh.. what the hell for?.
In fact the designer wants to refresh everything it sees. It flickers alot and resets/refresh whatever design element your in..(uh..why?)
It should only refresh when I tell it.
Looks like 8.5 is IBM's version of Vista.
I love the UI, but it's just too damn slow all around.
Now I'm off to reinstall my Admin/Designer/Notes client AGAIN!!!! (today makes about 10 times in the last 45 or so days - yes really.. and I'm being conservative)
and yes..I am ticked off.
