PDF documents slow to download and complete to view
Hi @evan,
It may be that I have an old PC, but are pdf documents slower to download and view etc. from ifixit
An example is in this answer to a question,
https://www.ifixit.com/Answers/View/2768...
Here’s the link to the pdf
(https://www.ifixit.com/Document/2042/.pd...)
When I click on the pdf link in the answer instead of a while to download and appear, it slowly appears piecemeal. I tried on another faster PC but it still took ages to eventually complete and appeared as pages at a time instead of the whole document being ready.
I tried some other pdf docs from ifixit and they seemed to load faster but it still didn’t seem a smooth process.
I realize that you have to wait for all the data to be downloaded. Perhaps I miss not seeing a download progress indicator ;-)
Hopefully this makes sense.
Is this a good question?
Hi jayeff! I passed this along to Evan so the devs can look into it.
