Longer texts lead to slow performance
-
I tend to write longer texts on my blog, sometimes 5000 words or longer (up to 11000 words), and notice that editing takes a long time because of a long running script. I’m wondering if the transition to javascript for the analysis might be that script I’m waiting on after sometimes every keystroke, when it’s rescanning the text on the page.
Now its not much fun to write on wordpress anymore and I’ve reached the point that I have to wait for every character I type and sometimes the browser can’t even keep up my typing and the only solution seems to be to write outside of WordPress, and really there is no reason for me to have my SEO retested while I am writing the article. It would be sufficient for me to have some sort of button or link to activate the check. In that way I can choose when I have to wait for it to be finished.
For me writing and checking the analysis are basically two separate tasks, so why should my system have to combine them to a real-time continuous scan? In that way it differs from f.i. spelling checking which offers added value by real-time scanning.
My computer has an I7 processor with 8GB Ram, so it’s not that my system is too slow. I work mostly in IE on Windows 10.
My question is: can it be yoast’s script that’s slowing down editing? Have you tested on this aspect editing long articles? And if so, is there a solution except using a different plugin? And if not, have you any suggestions to analyse and solve this problem?
I’m hoping…
Kind regards, Hans
