We have, but it should be noted CART does some special things I believe to draw
'as fast as possible', so even a 40% regression, could still be 'fast enough'
and we still wouldn't see an affect we cared about.
As I said, I didn't look at CART specifically but more at TART. One interaction
that was particularly bad there in the numbers, was 'tab-close' that looked
fine to me on the machines I looked at, but it probably deserves some specific
attention on some other, slower machines.
Thanks!
