The big lesson we learned from building the Dropbox app photos tab was: don’t block the user! Instead of requiring changes to be propagated to the server synchronously, we built Carousel from day one as an eventually consistent system. With mobile networks still slow and unreliable, we knew this would be the only way to deliver a Dropbox-backed gallery that felt fast and local.

The asynchronous, delta-based design to our mobile library empowered us to build an app that was much faster than the Dropbox photos tab. This design enabled us to hide the latency between client and server from the user. In the next installation of this series, we’ll go into more depth on the latency between disk and memory, and how optimizing that was also critical to making the app feel fast.
