Improve speed of hover vcard appearance
closed
Ciaira Castorena
When hovering over a username the vcard takes an average of 1+ seconds to appear. This may not sound like a lot but in terms of UX it's an eternity and as a result, many of our users aren't aware of this feature that gives them immediate access to useful information about their colleagues. If this load time could be improved it would be a huge help.

I'm sorry that I don't have terribly good news on that one.
In theory yes, it's possible to influence the amount of time it takes for the vcard to appear. However, that would mean we'd have to basically duplicate and overwrite a Confluence functionality; something we haven't had good experiences with in the past. So I'm closing this ticket as we won't change anything on this one.
You could try and bring this issue to Atlassian as a request, but I don't know how likely it is to be considered.

Hey Ciaira Castorena,
I totally agree on that one, it sometimes feels really slow. Thing is, the vcard appearing on hover is not a Linchpin feature, but it's from Confluence itself. It only has a Linchpin Look & Feel to it, because we replace the contents with our own.
That being said, it's unclear if we can improve on the performance. Also, we probably could replace the Confluence functionality with a custom one, but that also is not guaranteed to be faster.
Nevertheless, since this fits our current development focus on performance, I'll take this issue to the team for evaluation.
