Loading is so slow on the new iPad app. No images to answer questions and no progress. UIWebView too slow?

@avecsophia

UIWebView *is* quite slow, but I expect what you're seeing is due to server issues we're fighting this afternoon.

Spike in usage slowing everything down? Which parts of the app are UIWebView and which are native?

@avecsophia

We think it was a memcache failure. Exercises and articles are rendered via UIWebView; the rest is native.

When do you switch to WKWebView? :) @AvecSophia

prototyped it out; it was painful because we need file:/// access and didn't perform much better. :/ @avecsophia

Images are loading in the questions but the points don't show up at the end. Server issues still?

thanks - the buttons are pretty snappy and responsive for a webview. that's impressive (even if I can't get my points!)

@AvecSophia The buttons and chrome are all native. Not sure what's up with the network—away from a computer.
