> opens in about 2s in Element X iOS

I think we're getting closer.

Your "good experience" on Element X iOS matches my "bad experience" on Element X iOS.

See, with my Server and Chats, Classic is actually very snappy:

  - Element X: ~1.5 seconds avg (rounds to 2 sec if using a non-decimal stopwatch, but more like 1.5 when measured more precisely)
  - Element Classic: ~0.6 second avg (actually slightly faster visually, this includes my response time to stop the timer, probably more like just around/under 0.5 sec)
Anyway, Classic is very fast for me to open. I like it a lot. It feels almost instant.

But X loads in 2-3 times the time. I sit there waiting for content to load, even if it's just for a second.

Is this the best Issue to watch?: https://github.com/element-hq/element-x-ios/issues/4102

Because I really hope speed does not regress for people already with very fast load times in Classic, when X becomes the only flagship App in the App Store.



To be complete, for anyone following along: the above hypothesis was allegedly incorrect. 2 seconds is not supposed to be normal for so few chats. Element X is supposedly normally nearly instant to load & list chats for such a small number of chats.

So, I'll try to come back here and comment if I get it resolved.
