Source Tab Jams When Too Many MyHeritage Records Matches Confirmed

Take this profile:

http://www.geni.com/people/Marie-Morin/6000000006287011724

It has over 60 confirmed matches. And because most confirmed matched are added to the Source tab (as of now, that profile has 64 sources), the tab jams. You click on the source tab, and Geni grinds to a halt.

Really, MyHeritage records shouldn't be added to the source tab at all. They are already promiscuouly shown above all the tabs. Leave the source tab free for Geni users who actually do real research.

P.S.: This Confirmed Matches thing is awefully ugly; it takes a huge part of the screen and shows virtually no useful data. This feature has to be redesigned.

  Agree, I never confirm matches because they are not sources and the matches field are way too dominating on the profile.

  Thanks Bjørn.

  Geni Team, please fix this as soon as you can. Here is another profile. It's got 96 confirmed matches. The source tab is completely jammed. I want to add additional legitimate sources but it's impossible. The capability to add "real" sources is an essential feature of genealogy.
