I20061010-0800 Start Eclipse Help/Help Contents A web page is created which includes frames for search, toc, index etc. Most of these frames have a small amount of HTML content. The HTML for the index frame however is proportional to the size of the index, so if the index is large the server will have to send out a large amout of data regardless of whether or not the user selects the index tab. For an infocenter this adds unnecessary load on the server. It would be better to wait until the user selects the index tab before requesting this data from the server.
Setting priority to major - if we don't fix this it will be a serious performance problem when opening help from either Eclipse or an Infocenter.
This is now fixed as part of a rewrite of the index view to improve performance. The index is now only read when the index tab is first selected and it is read one screen of information at a time.
