I'm not sure about it. Just checked it out. It's slower than the old interface, at least on my system.
How is it slower?
It seems better now. It felt like the little yellow loading pop up came up more frequently on the new UI. But now that I've been using it, it doesn't seem to happen as much.
Oh okay, I didn’t see that

It felt really sluggish to me, but you are sensitive to these things when trying something new, so hard to say.

Initial loading on a new browser or device does seem slow, but not any worse than before. I like the new displays of where attachments are.

Not the initial, I mean reading email actions.

Uck, I haven't noticed that, yet, let me knock on some wood.

New ui will not play wav files. Our voicemails are delivered via email.

Get VLC player. It plays all the formats. Your voicemails are almost certainly being delivered in a lo-fi, wack-ass version of a .wav file.

It could be sluggish if Gmail offline is enabled. I only noticed a little slow down while using Firefox.

Have you not noticed literally everything else slowing down because of FF? They keep saying their new versions are the tits, but FF has gotten worse and worse with each new version in my experience. I wouldn't blame slowness on a new gmail interface until I confirmed it on 4 other browsers.

So far Chrome, Opera, and Vivaldi is working great for me. Firefox was ok on my Mac but on Fedora it took awhile. I’m not willing to try Safari or Microsoft Edge to confirm.

I'll try chrome. I was using FF Quantum on Fedora. Maybe that's what the problem was.

I tried the new interface out today (3 different browsers)... holy slowness, Batman! It took less than 5 minutes for me to switch it back. I like the look of it, but the performance is sad.

Does anyone knows if it’s still slow when accessing it from a chromebook?
-
@black3dynamite Tested it on Laura's chromebook. Both my desktop and the chromebook it's incredibly fast.

Only thing that annoys me is that my gsuite hasn’t migrated yet. I want it all to look the same

Yeah and for the life of me I cannot be on the Early release program for it.
