Just to clarify:
This has only been noticed on slower pc's; and on slightly faster systems with low memory available.  The problem does not manifest itself when there are only a few lines of data; only when there is a large volume.    On B2, if you watch IE's process, you can see memory fluctuate only a little during the waiting period (one user waited over 30 minutes for a single line update to a large news item).  On B4, it's a fast operation all around; but the result is data loss for those same pc's.
 
This problem does not occur for the same users when we switch wysiwyg off for their account, which only stalls the problem for them.

Subject: Re: [xwiki-users] Wysiwyg - losing data

We don't really have intensive testers for the wysiwyg editor (which is bad), so probably none of the developers noticed this. On the other hand, nobody else complained about this. So, to make things clear, this happens only on some slow computers?

I'm sure that if the error was because of TinyMCE, they would have known, so it's probably a bug in our code.

Somebody else should test this and confirm the bug.

On a few of our pc's (those with lower memory), for Beta2 and Beta3 the main problems experienced with the wysiwyg editor were mainly revolving around updating or adding large data (100lines+) in a news item.  Mainly, it took several minutes depending on styles applied (understandable).

On Beta4, we're experiencing data loss in place of this; which has my users quite concerned.
Just to clarify: this is only affecting users using the wysiwyg interface.

Before loging a JIRA issue (I could not find a similar one in the logged issues already there), I'd like a show of hands if anyone else has experienced either problem?
