Hi I've noticed when I create a SharePoint list item (either by SmartForms or by SMOT or by Workflow) it takes about 0.1 seconds to execute when the list item "doesn't" contain a People Picker/Person assigned field. 

The minute I add a name to the Picker column it adds 5 seconds to the request. If I have 2 names, that takes 10 seconds and so on!

The Smart Object being used is the one K2 automatically creates for me from my SharePoint list. The fields are all primitive and no custom code solution is in place, it's all out of the box SharePoint and K2 blackpearl 4.7.

I've tried this now with multiple lists and SmartObjects and still the same behaviour. Could this be an OAauth issue or something related to resolving the users maybe at AD level or should it really increase the time it takes to create a list itemby 50 times when adding a person to it??

Thanks,

Nick
