Also you mention the css speed for Dropbox and Jumpshare, but then when you get to CloudApp you just say its better but for some reason don't list the css file size.Īll in all, the issue appears to be with your internet connection, so upgrading to the premium version will not help. I don't have Flash installed and page loads instantly. All three pages loaded instantly on my machine.Īlso CloudApp does not use Flash. Are you saying it takes you 21 seconds to load that page on Dropbox on your computer and 12 seconds to load CloudApp on your machine? If so, that is definetly an issue particular to your machine. The requests analyzer in the Firefox Devtools most likely have a bug. On closer inspection, it seems Jumpshare's CSS is NOT 636.18KB.

It should be possible entirely without any JavaScripts. The image you view is 1,074.4KB and all you actually only need is a little bit of HTML around it and maybe some really basic CSS. So you get more features and more storage if you pay $X per month? What I really would pay for is a much faster web page.

I can't tell how much storage they give you for free but. Now I have a cute little kanguru in the OSX toolbar. The OSX app worked wonderfully and was really easy peasy to set up. This new contender, Jumpshare, looks and feels great. They might win todays performance comparsion but I dare not go back. But lack of HTTPS I kinda sad.īut remember, the reason I ditched CloudApp was because it was unreliable to the point of serious frustration. Also, CloudApp wins more rows in the "In numbers" section above. Dropbox is the only one that doesn't force you to load Flash.Īs you can see, CloudApp loads marginally faster than Jumpshare (and Dropbox trails long long after).CloudApp doess their CSS better, but it's still bigger than it needs to be.Of the 85 JavaScript files Dropbox force you to eat, roughly 20 of them are trackers that would get disabled if you enable tracking protection in your browser.Dropbox has 4,974.83KB of JavaScript spread over 85 files!!.I wonder if you can even reach 636KB if you concatenate Bootstrap, SemanticUI, Foundation, PureCSS and Bootflat into one file? Perhaps that's a blog post on its own. Here using the pure browser Firefox Devtools to measure the network requests needed: Last but not least a visual comparison of all three on Firefox, DSL from San Jose, CA, USA.

That might be topic enough for a whole new blog post. I don't know if that's because those sites (CloudApp and Jumpshare) apply some CSS filters a la Instagram but they look different. Samplesīut let's look at the difference in how these three perform in showing an image:īy the way, I'm sorry about the motif in the pictures but I encourage you to open each of these and notice that they all look different.

That's nice but I'm not desperate so I might upgrade later.

It's free!! Their "plus upgrade", for $9.99/month gives you more options, more storage (1TB), possible password protection, custom branding, custom domain and analytics. So lastly, people have been saying great things about Jumpshare. It's just supposed to show an image! It's not supposed to load so slowly that it makes my browser tremble. I can't remember how much I pay them but the primary use for paying them is that they back up a folder on the hard drive and make it easy to share other files in a nice way.īut when I take a screenshot, and share that link, that page, that shows the screenshot, is horribly slow. So I switched to Dropbox and they have been very reliable. It was mostly working but unreliable enough that I just couldn't cope. I can't remember how much I paid but they started being very unreliable.

One tool that I use many times per day, at work, is to take a screenshot on my mac and then that gets uploaded to the clouds and a to that picture gets put in my clipboard so I can quickly and easily share it.įirst I was using CloudApp, which was awesome.
