Client: Internet Explorer 7 on Windows XP. Server (running on same physical machine as the client): XWIki 1.9RC1, on Apache/Jetty/HSQLDB. The task monitor is showing CPU idle time around 80% but updating of the characters on the screen still is taking 10-15 seconds. Agreed. I think this could be a really important and big set of features and is worth doing right. I'm also glad to see other people think it's interesting. Note: if we do it right, a number of the standard XWiki pieces can be integrated into this (e.g. registering a new Wiki user is a great example of a workflow process). Don't mind at all, thanks!
