> Check out the new GMail, my new corporate account has no ads but it still weighs in at 25MB (well 28MB now - still asyncing stuff!) for the inbox.

The new gmail is the slowest web app I have ever used. It's gotten so bad I've started managing my email on my relatively snappy inbox iOS client.

It wouldn't be so bad if they didn't load so much crap, like the gchat functionality nobody has used since 2008.

The old HTML only version still works. I just refreshed mine and got 19.11 KB transfered with cache disabled. (about half that with cache)

Sadly I like the bundling of inbox far too much to switch back at this point.

Agreed 100%. Just getting it to load takes forever, and Google Calendar sometimes never renders for me (on latest Chrome for OSX-1).
