Re: load indicator when loading application

Maybe you can simply fake the download progress by calculating an average download time for a given client and store that average download time on the client in local storage / cookie. Create a timestamp as soon as the host HTML page loads and create a second timestamp in onModuleLoad(). The diff should roughly be the download time of app.nocache.js and <permutation>.cache.html. If the diff is too small then the permutation has been loaded from cache and you should not use it for the average calculation.

The first time when the client has no average download time it can only show a "please wait" loading indicator but the second time (e.g. after an app update or the client has cleaned up his cache) you could fake download percentages on the client using the estimated download time.

Not perfect but maybe a lot easier to implement and still good enough.
