Searches flat out don't work for me. It sits there loading and loading. And then it changes to say "Still loading…", but it never shows results. This also causes problems with labels; I can't filter email, at all. As an example of how slow Gmail is at times: I've started a search for something before going out to lunch for an hour. When I came back, it hadn't found any results yet. As far as I could tell, it didn't time out. This was sometime in July and it hasn't gotten any better. There's also the problem where mail from my college's mail server shows up anywhere from 30 minutes to 3 days after it is sent out by someone. Needless to say, this causes problems when talking to professors, unless I use the email account provided my my college.
