How is your latency on Windows setup? No matter what conf I try I still got ~7sec load time when I reload the application in the browser. Sometimes managed to get ~2sec, but rather rare.

After some time of playing around I decided to switch to Ubuntu dev environment myself. The latest setup is having Ubuntu on my external SSD. Hook it up to any machine I have at hand, boot it up and continue where I left. Application load latency normal, like on a local dev environment :P

Still curious, how others are experiencing it on Windows and possibly go back some time.

Hi German,

Thanks for dropping by. Yours is quite fast. Actually in my case, it is way slower because of our internet speed here. I'm not sure if others are experiencing faster latency than yours. :)

I mean latency on the local dev environment, where you are not connected to the outside internet and just launch the application in the browser from your computer. I couldn't get it fast enough on Windows + virtualbox. Was wondering how does it work for you (or anybody who is setting this up on Windows).

ohh I see.. On my first launch on my app in the browser, it will take me like around 5 to 7sec. But on my next launch just around 2 sec.
