Managed Metadata field retrieval incredibly slow performance

Hi.

 

We have an MMS field with several thousand terms (~7000).

 

In out-of-the-box SharePoint we have autosuggestions as we type and the retrieval, although not instant, is very fast considering the amount of terms.

 

On our K2 forms, it takes 30+ seconds to resolve an entered term, and there is apparently no autosuggestion.

 

Is this an expected behaviour?

 

What can be done about any of these issues?

 

Thanks in advance.

There is a smartform control called an autocomplete that performs much like sharepoint and it seems to be pretty fast with large data sets.

 

Sharepoint web server responses can be kind of slow. Managed metadata has a web service you might try calling this directly to see if it is SharePoint reponding slowly.

 

Try this and see if it works.
