In general UIs should always respond in 100ms or less.
For lord's sake GMail takes a full 3s which is slower than any desktop client took in 2000. Somehow people think it is okay to make your page slower because "ooh aah AJAX" and "oh I can just add a spinner" or something ... Back when I used pine it just loaded instantly! No spinner, no splash screen, no progress bar needed. And don't give me that "oh but it's in the cloud" crap -- the cloud isn't an excuse to be slow when I have a 300mbps downlink with sub-10ms ping times to headquarters and datacenters of these companies. |
