Thanks very much for the offer. I seem to have fixed it here, but the
problem wasn't specifically in Sortable. What I ended up doing was
staggering some of the Ajax loading events that were also happening
while that function fired using setTimeout and that got around the
problem.
Somewhere on one of my computers I have a copy of a framework called
light sortable or lite sortable, which aims to ape the Scriptaculous
API without being so heavy. It eschews the fancy animation effects for
simple fast drag sorting. But my page (and client) are pretty wedded
to that eye candy, so I guess Im stuck with that.
Thanks,
Walter

Walter,
I had the timeout problem on a script with a different purpose.
What I did was hijacked the code here: http://www.mcfedries.com/JavaScript/timer.asp
I created an array: var funcTimers[] and then modified the above
code to insert into the array and each func started the timer on
entry and ended it on exit.
At the end, I dumped the funcTimers out with an alert() and I had my
answer.
Also, about 10 years ago (when I was younger and smarter) I wrote a
table sort function that would sort a standard html table based on
the column clicked. It was quite fast and would sort through 1000
columns pretty quickly. I looked on my backup drive and couldnt
find it but if you want, I'll root around and post it.... might give
you a different strategy.

I have been chasing my tail on a slow script error, and just now
discovered that if I disable my call to make a 1,000 element list
sortable the problem goes entirely away.
First, is there any sort of tool I can use to determine where this
function is spending all of its time?
Second, is there any way to get around these slow script errors? The
issue I am seeing is that once the page loads, and this function is
called, the browser goes into beachball mode, eventually shows an
alert about the slow script. If I okay that (keep trying, I tell it)
the page loads and works perfectly. Sortable does exactly what it's
supposed to do, and very snappily.
Thanks in advance,
Walter
