I really love the idea of this app & plugin, but its performance on my site is problematic. I have a very large, very busy site and the load times of the forums index and individual forum index pages are very, very slow. If a forum has 20,000 or 30,000 threads in it, this system appears to be processing information for all of them before returning any information. On the busier forums, I am getting page load times in Tapatalk of 1 minute or more. I am testing this with the iPhone logged into my local network via Wi-Fi, so this isn't a bandwidth issue. The site loads quite a bit faster in Safari, with all the visual overhead, then these stripped down pages are loading. This system also does not appear to recognize sticky threads and I was disappointed to see that it doesn't interace with the PM system.
I really do think this is the start of a great idea. It will need to mature a bit before I launch it on my site though. Eric
