| Description |

example: I find it annoying that a page which appears to have a lot of content redirects me. If there is a 3 second redirect the page should say, "this page has been moved, redirecting you in 3 seconds". It shouldn't have all the old documentation visible. I think either of these 3 options would be better. |

Redirects are now <1 second HTTP/javascript redirects in the client rather than being 301, which is somewhat clumsy but not a huge problem. At some point , we'll want something that doesn't seem so clumsy when dozens (100ish? more?) of mongodb.org pages redirect to other places (new docs, some other content management solution? driver documentation). But for now, I think it's fine to resolve this. |

I think this is resolved. Sam can you confirm? |

I actually think that the redirects are 1 second. it's configurable in the redirect plugin. |
