ProgressSpinner
When to use
Use for actions taking 2-10 seconds where you cannot predict completion time. Users with progress indicators wait on average 3x longer than those without feedback.
Guidelines
- <1 second: No indicator needed
- 2-10 seconds: Use spinner (this component)
- >10 seconds: Use ProgressBar with percent/estimate
- Add text context: "Loading comments..." is better than a bare spinner
