Ask YC: Feedback on startup's Facebook app

Way too long to analyze without any type of status bar, update bar, or something else to do.

People will just wonder and then leave.

Thanks for the feedback! We are trying to improve the speed but it takes a fair bit of time to process the document and then parse for skills, etc. Until we get it sped up, we could either have a placeholder (which we do currently), or we could just block the user on a status bar, but they could be stuck there for up to 30 seconds.

Any thoughts on which might be less painful until we get it running faster?
