Too bad, as Linkedin did an amazing job optimizing their HTML5 app. See my discussion with their project lead on Hackernews: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5552634 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5552634 There is a ton of tricks LinkedIn employed to optimize their webapp. Check out their blog for a ton of ideas: http://engineering.linkedin.com/mobile/ http://engineering.linkedin.com/mobile/ What I think they failed at, is not releasing their code open source. Then the community would have helped them find the memory leaks and other edge cases. So I consider it a call to arms, let's build an amazing mobile web client that employs all those tricks, things that only big companies like LinkedIn could afford to make, and better. We could turn this into a distro for JavaScript/HTML5 apps. I and my friends have started this work. Join us on github at http://github.com/urbien/urbini http://github.com/urbien/urbini
