My current project is building a (almost) 1gb Java rich client which takes around 2minites to load… while it’s merely a gui with some small client to client capabilities. The technical debt is insane, and it’s only getting worse because neither can they afford to rebuild it from scratch.
In similar boat(s) too. Like watching a train wreck.
