Faster initial app launches
We've optimized how we load workspace data when you access it for the first time. Large workspaces contain a lot of data and we no longer wait for all of the data to be available before letting the user interact with the application. Instead, less frequently accessed data will continue to be streamed in while the user uses the application.
This optimization can make initial app launches for large workspaces up to 10 times faster.
