You seriously underestimate the complexity of Gmail. It may well be the most complex JavaScript application in existence with an appreciable user base.

- tomjen3 14y agoAre you arguing that Gmail is more complicated than google docs?
- oinksoft 14y agoYou make a fair argument. Google has several state-of-the-art JS applications. I thought of Gmail in particular because it probably sees much higher demand and so matters of optimization are probably a bit more important to it. This makes the amount of network activity, client-side caching, etc. it manages really impressive. But no doubts that Google Docs is in the same ballpark.
- malandrew 14y agoAsana to me feels far more complex and robust than Gmail. There are tons of things I can do that feel desktop like in Asana, that I can't do in Gmail.
