I am at my limited wits’ end trying to figure out why using TinyMCE on my two ModxRevolution sites results in unusable performance slowdowns when editing content in the manager.
I have posted to other forums with no success.
The problem:
I have two fairly standard installations of ModX Revolution with not a lot of customization. One site is running 2.0.8, the other is running 2.0.7
Both have the same (latest) version of TinyMCE installed.
When you use the rich text editor for page content, you can watch the performance degrade with every keystroke as the manager keeps sending messages to the server.
I will give you admin access to the server and pay you via paypal, email money transfer (in Canada) or other.
I’ll start at $100.
Could you tell us more about the server? Who is the site hosted with, do you have gzip enabled, etc?

Well I would like to say I noticed the same symptoms on one of my Revo sites, but paid no attention to it since it didn’t affect my other sites. I’m going to take a look again.

To answer @AMDbuilder:
Site is on cloud platform with Site5 Hosting.
Modx: 2.0.8-pl (traditional)
PHP: 5.2.16
exJS: 3.3.0
smarty: 3.0.4
Zend: 2.2.0
MySQL: 5.0.91
Zip: enabled
That’s very interesting, I have zero problems with my site which is on one of their shared servers. Also gzip and zip are different. gzip compresses things before sending them, thus faster website.
Could you try switching to php 5.3 briefly (htaccess code is in site5 blog), also could you try using a browser such as Chrome? See if that helps any.
It’s not sending a message per keystroke for me. MODX 2.0.8 / TinyMCE 4.1.1. I also have the Spellchecker plugin enabled (instructions for that are in the docs) but that doesn’t send out a request all the time, either.
What version of TinyMCE are you running on? I can see what happens if I install that version. Could be a bug in Tiny.

I’ve sent you a PM, would like to see what I can do.

Watching your video, I see you have firebug installed. What does the firebug console say as you type? How about Live HTTP Headers? If you have that installed, what do you see if indeed something is getting sent to the server on each keystroke?
My gut tells me it has something to do with ExtJS. Like I mentioned, I’ve experienced this before, and my firebug showed errors similar to content typed in text fields other than tiny.
