This is the simplest sample application: http://labs.live.com/volta/samples/Quickstart.html135 requests, 2.29MB download (only 56KB from cache), it took 31.67 seconds, FF said "Not Responding" while it was loading and I've been loading it for the third time.
They're not going to get out the sandbox with that attitude.

Wow. That is AWFUL. It froze my browser for a good 10 seconds or so. MS loses again! :)
I even tried in IE7, and it is still frozen. Sheeeesh
And sure enough: "Warning: Unresponsive script. Do you want to continue?"
Although I wouldn't consider it even if it were 5 times faster than GWT. The price of lock-in and closed source is too high.
c# to javascript
have a look at jsc.sf.net and visit my blog for news. :)
post a comment on my blog and tell what do you think,
cheers
That was impressive. Took 18 seconds to load on my 55Mbps pipe.
It was doubly impressive given exactly what the page did.
Has anyone deconstructed any of the requests to try to see exactly what all that content is?
Assuming you are using Firefox, you could install Firebug (http://www.getfirebug.com/). It will show you all outgoing and incoming HTTP traffic local to the web-page you are viewing. It's an extremely useful web tool. It is shown on the screen-shot, by the way.
