You think gmail is slow, try the new adwords interface.

Or the g suite admin console. Cripes, it's insanely frustrating to use.

That's kinda what it feels like to me. Does g suite already have so much technical debt that they can't make it better? It's been this way since I started using it, more than a year ago.

Oh man, I used to be on the team that built that. It's just enormous. If you're on Chrome, the optimizations are sometimes enough to make it smooth. If you're on any other browser, god help you. I used to see 30s(!) reflows in Firefox.

I assume it's the same as the DFP/AdManager interface? Because every click means I can make a new pot of coffee.
