To be honest, I have nothing to compare it to. Most servers I connect to are outside Australia, so I guess everything has added latency and I must be used to it. I'm talking about websites here. Maybe 2-3 seconds total to load an "average" site with a fair few images?
I'm not a fan of cloud anything anyway. We have these supercomputers in our pocket and on our desks, but we're meant to use them only as dumb terminals now?
I certainly don't find things unusable, but I can still remember the heady days of 300 baud modems and reading the text as it was generated on the screen.
So everything is amazing now and 300ms latency wouldn't bother me.
Even if it was 10 seconds, I'd just open a new tab and continue what I was doing and switch back to the original one when it eventually loaded.
