UR Web Page Import

I got this reply from the developer on the occasional lengthy duration for importing a web page:

If there is a hiccup in the network or the server the page is on becomes
unresponsive, it can take time to import the page; the progress
dialog will be displayed during this time (and another import cannot be
initiated until it has completed/canceled). Importing a web page involves
retrieving the page's contents, including referenced pages on the same
site (for keywording) and images (for storage if embedding), which can
take time, depending on a lot of factors, including connection speed and
responsiveness of the server and the pipe in between. We have not seen
this process never complete, but if there is a specific web page where this
happens consistently, we can take a look to see if the problem is
reproducible, and therefore debuggable.

If UR takes longer than ADM, it may be because of UR's automatic keywording that it applies to imported matter.
