Answer 1

From what you have said the slow loading is due to AngularJS working as opposed to data loading [as evidenced by the fact its slower in IE than Chrome]. If this is true then a loading indicator wont help as it'll just freeze too.

You are far better off following normal performance techniques in angular such as:

• Show less on the page, a user surely doesnt need to see 100 fields at once? Consider paging.
• For items that won't change use bind once like so: {{::vm.name}}
• On the subject of handle bars, its generally more efficient to use
  rather than handle bars {{::vm.name}}
