That is all part of the mix. Basically, you want an minimalist approach. Minimize JS, jpg's, anything that isn't absolutely necessary to the look and feel of the app. It requires you to look at the whole thing with different eyes. These are powerful computing platforms, it is just that there is so much bloat on the web in general that you need to "think thin" when designing and programming.

The challenge in web app vs phone app is managing the data volume.
Is it data volume, or were you downloading a boatload of JavaScript? I guess a
phone wouldn't be very good at either.
