What is the response time threshold where users notice a delay in interactive applications?
A delay of 0.2–1.0 seconds does mean that users notice the delay and thus feel the computer is "working" on the command, as opposed to having the command be a direct effect of the users' actions.
What is UI response time?
10 seconds
This is the limit for the user's short-term memory. The users start to lose information and thus will not be able to resume the interaction very smoothly when the computer finishes the task. Special feedback is required for this response time.
