The will pays are displayed now but not on phone (android app) but fine on phone on website only, also fine on tablet seems to be fine, funny things happen on these sites. As for desktop, haven't tried.

Thanks. Mine is working but slow as a wet week re-loading/updating today. I'll try that. Had to do it anyway a couple of times today. It certainly has a very lack-lustre performance compared with most.

The memory hog just keeps climbing.  You'll find your PC performance will start slowing down for everything.  If you are using Chrome and hover over the tab at the top of the browser you will see how much memory is being used.

in layman's terms please?

I'll try and translate into layman's terms even though I'll be open to being critiqued!

Basically when you open any website on a browser it consumes memory (RAM) on your device.  A website will load images, code scripts, data and other things into your memory i.e. the memory cache.  This enables a faster experience than having to download everything each time you flick through pages or click on something on the site.  Some sites are hungrier than others with the initial upload.  Some don't efficiently manage the memory usage because of poorly written code.

A well built website will swap assets (images, data, scripts) in and out of memory without the user noticing and without degradation of the user experience.

The TABNZ website keeps consuming memory as you use it. It doesn't seem to swap assets out that aren't needed and would appear to even duplicate them.  Your PC or Laptop has a limited amount of RAM that it shares with everything else that you have open at any one time.  If one app or website starts to hog more and more of the memory your Laptop or PC will slow down.

I wouldn't recommend opening the website on a browser on your smart phone instead use the app.  Although that's tricky too because the app has links to the tab.co.nz website hidden in it.

Running a website performance checker over the TABNZ site you get a very very low performance score.
