Does Mindmeister have concurrency control so that 100+ people can use it at the same time?

When large groups (100+) collaborate on a wikimap, we experience lots of lag, slowness, and nodes and edits being 'deleted' immediately after occurring. These issues culminate into an additional problem of participants attempting to make edits on the client view of a map that is not the most up to date version, or (perhaps) multiple users attempting to edit the same node simultaneously.

Is there any way of minimizing these issues for large groups of collaborators, or enforcing some method of concurrency control in MindMeister?

 

Thanks.

I'm also getting requests to run group events with up to 100 people - they will all be newbies at first, so we will have the maximum number of mistakes.  People will be spread out all over the country and will be using a variety of devices & connection speeds.  Ideas for making the experience as smooth as possible are welcome!  (comment such as minimum connectivity speed, expected delays between clicks and visible actions on the group maps).  Right now, some changes within brainstorming mode appear within 1-2 seconds, others take longer.

Thanks, and keep up the good work with the upgrades!!
