Shopping cart slow with Multiple Selections...
Is this normal
When I am trying to purchase 300 pictures the shopping cart becomes extremely slow.
Example: Just to open the shopping cart with 300 pictures in it it takes, 1 minute and 36 seconds just to finish contacting SM, and a full 3 minutes and 20 seconds to fully load the cart to where I can start to do something.
Then to change anything takes a long time. And every change prevents other changes until SM Shopping cart finishes. Everything is one at a time. I know about the bulk load but I am talking about individual changes after a selection of 300 pictures to purchase.
Example: Just to change quantity on 1 single picture from 1 to 2 takes 1:18 minutes. If somebody wanted to change the quantity on 30 pictures it would take them over 30 minutes just to change them.
Another example; If I wanted to dupe a picture and purchase a puzzle also here is how long it would take. Make dupe, 3:31 Minutes; Change item from Prints to Gifts: 1:15 minutes; Change from 4x6 to Puzzle; 1:13 Minutes. For a total of 5:59 minutes just to make a dupe and make it a puzzle.
The shopping cart is updating every little change. I think it would be a lot quicker if a person could make a lot of changes and then push an update button to make all the changes at once.
BTW, Professional Account, Mac 10.4.2, Dual 2Gig, 2Gig Ram, DSL Safari, and MS Internet Explorer and t is not a slow internet connection. I can send and receive email and surf while SM is doing its thing. IT doesn’t make any difference.
I really like many aspects of SM, but this one is causing me some pain. I am at a point where I and my clients need o be able to purchase many pictures easily and quickly.
