Hi,
I have been frustrated so often by poor bugzilla.novell.com performance (possibly part of the problem is that it is on the other side of the globe - 160 milliseconds away) that today I imported my own maildir of openSUSE bugzilla data since 2011 and provide it for quick and easy public access at http://bugzilla.zq1.de
Even those of us who are quite a bit closer have performance problems with bnc. Part of it is the Single Sign-on for novell.com accounts (I like to think it's not a coincidence that the helper is called LAGBroker, since it certainly seems to introduce a lot of it). The other part is that the database backing bnc seems to have been slow forever. That's why we don't get real string searches anymore. I briefly tried getting a separate instance of bugzilla.opensuse.org running but there is a ton of work just getting it to the point of integration that bnc already is and it's a pretty big project. We do have a hack week coming up, though... -Jeff
Data is kept up-to-date in real time by parsing notification emails. (this could miss private security bugs)
While the UI still needs improvement, it should allow you to see some usability advantages over bugzilla and maybe serve as a base to something even better.
