How come data and results don always immediately appear in the dialogs?
The MAM system is fully distributed, and the dialogs stream back results. When agents are queried to see if they’re available for searching, viewing, and so on, it occasionally takes a moment to get a response back. A lot of this simply boils down to issues of net traffic. The vast majority of the time you should see results start streaming back almost immediately. Even when things slow down, it’s usually a matter of 10ths of a second at most, though sometimes there can be considerably longer lag.
