I think it feels fast because it loads at once, but I'm actually not getting very impressive results programmatically if you measure how long the entire TCP transaction takes (which is what I consider page loading): # Both DNS records are cached before request >>> print requests.get('https://varvy.com/pagespeed/wicked-fast.html').elapsed.microseconds 226515 >>> print requests.get('http://www.google.com').elapsed.microseconds 92027 Even google.com (92 ms) is about 250% faster than OP (226 ms) to establish connection, read all of the data, and close.
