So I put together my new system a while back, and used Windows 10 since the hardware is so new. Overall, aside from many annoying elements to Windows 10 that make it somewhat of an abomination, things have been working very well and I'm very happy with the new system. However, there is one element to Windows 10 that while not a deal-breaker (yet, only because I'm too preoccupied at the moment), I find infinitely frustrating: the extreme non-snappiness of response to user input when opening up elements of the interface.
Example: Right clicking somewhere to bring up a menu, such as the desktop or in a folder. There's like this intentionally set fraction of a second delay which is completely unnecessary. Even worse is if I try opening a folder. It doesn't matter if it's off a 2 GB/s SSD or HDD. There's a 1-3 second delay.
EVERYTHING IN THE INTERFACE IS LITERALLY SEVERAL TIMES SLOWER TO RESPOND THAN MY OLD SYSTEM WITH XP. In fact, what I enjoyed most about big hardware upgrades back in the day was specifically that everything would respond instantly. At this level of hardware performance there's no excuse for UI elements not to respond instantly. And when you're doing dozens of operations per minute on the interface these frustrations add up a LOT!
It's so retarded, because I'll be running multiple games, ****loads of browser windows, a video open, discord chat, mp3 player, and have a bunch of other **** running in the background. And everything's gravy. But HOW DARE I ASK FOR INTERFACE ACTIONS THAT RESPOND INSTANTLY. THAT'S GOING TOO FAR!
