An aspect that I find slow, is when I'm trying to delete files that are taking up space.
You can select Show Size in the drop down, but then when you go into a folder you then have to select it again on all folders. It's very time consuming.

Dropbox Product ManagerHi mikehinford, do you experience slowness only when deleting large files in Dropbox for web? Is it not the same behavior for small files? It looks like you try to sort files by size to free up space and once you navigate to the folder view, the files are no longer sorted by size and you have to do everything again. Correct?
Yes that's correct. It's not really Dropbox being slow. It's the finding the folder size process being slow.
