Slow load time and delayed chat responses #2
Description
Summary
The chat feature often takes a long time to produce a response. This makes the experience feel unreliable and can discourage users from using the tool.
Steps to reproduce
Open assertify.io.
- Navigate to the chat feature.
- Send a short prompt.
- Observe the time it takes for the page to feel ready and for the chat to return a response.
Actual behavior
- Chat responses take a long time to appear.
- There is limited feedback during the wait, so it is not clear if the system is processing, stuck, or failing.
Expected behavior
- Chat should return responses in a more consistent and reasonable timeframe.
- A clear loading state should reassure users while requests are processing.
Acceptance criteria
- Initial load time is improved or measured with a defined target and shows a noticeable reduction.
- Chat response time is improved or measured with a defined target and shows a noticeable reduction.
- A clear loading indicator is shown while waiting for a chat response.
- Basic performance metrics are captured to support future diagnosis and improvements.
