I did not face this problem so far - however, I am not a power user of
Launchpad.
It is the first time that I read about such problems. Is this a recent
problem or an old problem?

If there are fundamental flaws I am sure there is a way to fix it - if
it is just to use a different software. BTW: Have you ever reported a
bug on redhat Fedora? That's where I was annoyed by the poor
performance. Maybe they solved that - don't know - already a longer
while ago.

At least at Microsoft they have access to a bug tracking system - even
if it does not help me...
