I've *never* found that to be true, and I'm someone who's always found 
Java to be sluggish.

But web apps, even the better ones, just reinvent a whole new level of 
sluggish. Even just tying into a comment box on GitHub is frequently 
laggy to the point of being completely unsusable, and that's even on 
up-to-date firefox (I usually write in LibreOffice and copy/paste to 
GitHub). There's no excuse for that level of bloat. My freaking Apple 2 
didn't have text-entry lag.
