[chef] Re: Re: Re: Webui edit action extremelly slow

Okay, I looked at the source, and it is getting the list of all
available recipes from the api server. It needs to do this to have the
data for the drag and drop run list editor. We're making some big
changes in the way cookbooks are uploaded and downloaded in Chef 0.9,
it should be possible to do this much more efficiently then.

HTH,
