Fixing Slow Gmail in Safari, Mac OSX

At times, Gmail has been taking the longest time to send my mail messages. It does not matter whether the mail has a heavy file with it or a short note. It just slows down. And this occurs both in Safari and Firefox. 

After doing some googling, I found this fix. Apparently, the slowness is happening because of Gmail 2.0's interface. Solution? Just use the old Gmail 1.0 interface by typing this link instead: https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=1

So if you're having a slow Gmail connection on your Mac, try this!
