Rumor/Leak for specific RAM and storage capacity of the Switch sucessor (Centro Leak)

The SwitchOS is not snappy.

Games take awhile to load.
Opening menu's and the eShop has delays.

The Xbox Series/Playstation 5 OS's are "snappy". - But they have the Ram and CPU time to do that...

To prove the point that Switch's OS is too slow for the amount of RAM it uses you had to compare it to two consoles who have almost four times the RAM reserved for their OS AND the RAM those consoles use have over 10x the bandwidth the Switch does. 

It's like comparing a bike to a sports car and saying the bike isn't well built. It doesn't actually prove anything. 

As for your complaints. I'm not sure if your switch is broken, but booting a game from the main menu takes no time at all (an OS task). Loading IN game can take a while, but that's not because of the OS. The opening menu rarely ever has any delays for me. I did mention the eShop already. 

The Switch has pretty low-end hardware.
4GB of Ram was always a sticking point and I would have liked to have seen 8GB on release to let the hardware breathe better.

But even the Xbox One and Playstation 4 OS's, once they had loaded everything they needed, they were quick to navigate even with spinning rust drives... But they had 2.5GB+ Ram for that... Which harkens back to my original point that the Switch and Switch 2.0 need more Ram so they can do more... Because the Xbox One had: Voice Chat, Streaming, Remote Play, Kinect/Voice Commands, Web Browser, Apps, DLNA and more.

The Switch using solid state storage has an advantage over those old consoles due to low access times and yet something simple like the eShop is still a slow and stuttery mess.
