    When’s the last time you saw a video game that launches in under 100 milliseconds? I bet it was a game written for the web.

    At it’s best, the web is very fast.

      What web games are you playing? Do you count the time it takes to load the web page? I can’t think of a single game that loads so fast, web or otherwise. agar.io is super slow and bloated, hanab.cards takes about half a second to make a room, candybox2.github.io comes close but the network tab reports 128 ms to download the javascript.
