what kind of hardware do you have? For people like me who are on slower
hardware, the web experience is absolutely not funny and "a bit sluggish"
doesn't begin to describe it. It is hard to find any other website I'm visiting
that is slower than gitlab. For example, when I run this on my Firefox I get a
score of 1.53: https://browserbench.org/Speedometer3.0/#summary

On an intel core i7 1280P you will get around 7. If the result on your machine
is towards the latter instead of the former, then I understand how you would
describe the gitlab experience only as "a bit sluggish" instead of "atrocious".

You now said "I hope we can do something to improve it and it is now a
permanent reason to not use Salsa." twice:

Did you typo it twice or do you actually mean that it's now a permanent reason
to not use salsa?

I am not suggesting salsa use because I think it's the best thing since the
invention of sliced bread. But personally, I rather use something suboptimal if
it means that we can more or less agree on a "default" and I think that the
current situation (submission of patches by mail and the debian archive is the
bts) is deterring to newcomers. I know that most people probably have faster
machines than I.  As it was pointed out elsewhere in this thread, Debian work
already implies a lot more waiting than "a few seconds" for salsa to finish
loading a page or finish yet another animation, so meh. With the glab tool I
think I can be happy enough.

Thanks!

cheers, josch
