Lose time? - 1 second?
- InclinedPlane 17y ago1 second * eleventy hojillion hits to the home page every day = a metric pants load of total time lost There was a time when google considered a streamlined search landing page a feature, because it loaded fast and got out of the user's way. I guess times are changing.

With respect to the fading-in, in the blog post announcing it they said their studies showed that after users became accustomed to the change, they were using the new page faster than the old one. Data > Speculation
