Description Thomas Pfeiffer 2012-10-16 21:38:18 UTC
When you open the Add Items dialog, nothing happens for several dozen seconds before it loads the apps and reacts to input

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Tap on "Add Items"
2. Wait
Actual Results:  
You have to wait for a very long time

Expected Results:  
It should load in a few seconds, as it did until recently.

when it finally reacts, does it show "Apps" tab ot "top" tab?

get rid of the "Top" tab

it's extremely slow, not intuitive wording and the results have a lot of duplications

Comment 3 Thomas Pfeiffer 2012-12-06 20:26:08 UTC
Removing the Top tab fixed the slowness.
We still want some sort of recommendation in the Add Items dialog, but it looks like we need a better solution for this.
