Um that would be true if saving didn't occasionally seem to take an
inordinately long time for the quantity of data involved (?30sec). I
don't think my connection is particularly problematical, so I guess
the delays are either at the server end, or down to Potlatch waiting
excessively before retrying (or holding unnecessarily waiting
confirmation). Not really a bug, more a "feature", but not one of P's
better features. Other editors may be identical (haven't tried).
