I think we're measuring different things. My 6MB figure comes from bytes in DevTools from visiting gmail.com to a working UI.
PS. if you do work for Fastmail, you can make a quick win by streamlining your import tools. You probably know from my MY records I came from GSuite (otherwise I can select GSuite), that means you know the server names to import from and shouldn't have to ask me.
Ah, I was thinking memory usage, you were talking downloaded data. Got it. Yeah, the ratios are quite similar! And again in Gmail, Hangouts is responsible for what seems to me an irresponsibly large fraction of it.
The import tool and related things are something we’re working on overhauling right now. I haven’t been paying close attention to it (I’ve been working on work that is a precursor to service workers and offline support, which I’m stoked about), but the designs I have seen are looking good.
Thanks, it's nice to hear you're open about plans. You've got a great product and it really seems like it's your time to shine right now (not just GMail falling off, but also making JMAP an open spec etc).
