  Yeah and it's still rolling out slowly (or maybe the old version was still cached). Have a family member with a low-power desktop that works fine for general web browsing, video watching, email checking, and it used to be fine. New gmail (even with hover actions turned off) is an absolute performance mess. Even just scrolling down the list of emails is choppy. Never had a problem until now. I have no idea what Google is doing, but whatever it is there's a good chance they'll keep screwing it up
