When a user does an operation on a publishing page that would take them away
from the current page, we get the warning dialog about moving away. The thing
is that it takes for ever to show up, 20-30 seconds.

Using fiddler I found out that the page is making several hundred requests
against the PublishingService.asmx. Each time calling the Wait method with a
value of 100 milliseconds. What is going on?

Hi Chris,

From your description, I got that your sharepoint publishing service's page
will take long time to display when user perform a certain operation on it.
And you find that there is lots of Wait webservice method calls during the
long run period, correct?

I think the wait webservice method here is just sending some notification
to the service side so as to indicate that it will take more time for the
client-side page to render the entire page layout or the data processing at
the server-side is not ready. For your case, if it occurs on every page in
the sharepoint server, one possible issue is the server-side processing
takes lots of time; If you have other sharepoint server, you can try
watching the behavior on other server to see whether the same result
occurs.

Also, have you checked the server eventlog and MOSS ULS log to see whether
there is any particular entires there?

Sincerely,

Steven Cheng

The situation is that the user does something that takes them away from the
page, then the browser freezes for a period of time. Then the dialog box pops
up with the message.

I have reflected the web service, and the Wait call results in a
Thread.Sleep() call. So it's basically calling the server to wait for a while.
