To play a devil's advocate, a SPA definitely takes its time to load, but the subsequent requests may be much more fluid, since they only update the existing page, carry only the compressed and necessary information and may be retried, batched, etc.
Maybe it's more like the bias of exaggerated self-importance: people believe that their page will be used much more than once (and optimize for that), whereas most pages get their single view and are closed.
- simonw 10y agoYeah that's definitely part of my frustration here: mobile users tend to load up a site, achieve their goal and move on again in a session that's probably less than 60 seconds total. And since phones have limited caches, the chances are any caches resources will have been flushed out by other activity before they revisit your site or application.
