This is why a good design sense is important and it always makes me laugh to hear on HN of people wanting instantaneous responses with zero animations on websites. It sounds good in theory but not so in practice. There have been studies to show that people don't think anything has happened if for example they click a button to compute something and it instantly runs and returns. A delay is actually more comforting to them.
You can have visual feedback without delays, so that is no excuse. A UI that operates as fast as I can type, with no visible frame-skips, or click is always going to feel better to use than some sluggish bloat ui.
Didn't you read the OP? That is exactly what they're complaining about, that it in fact does not feel good.
