A special area of performance work. The trick is not to make something faster, but to make it more pleasant for the user. There are three important numbers:

  1. 100ms - no need to make any reaction faster, users won't notice anyway
  2. 1s - indicate work is in progress, otherwise people tend to invoke the action again
  3. 10s - give people estimate how much time will be needed (so they can get a cup of tea)

More serious info needed. Surprisingly there is nothing at wikipedia::UI Responsiveness!
