Why is the Google Cloud UI so slow?
Can a googler chime in to explain why Gmail is so slow at loading even on the most robust PCs with high speed internet?

Try this one:

It's HTML version of gmail and it loads instantly.

It's so fast! Blink and it's fully loaded! Also kind of looks better too. But that's subjective, I guess.

Because you are supposed to load it once and keep it forever. Loading a web app is like installing a software program.
