Back in the day we'd try and get page sizes down to less than 100k. The Internet isn't fast for everyone. I (in the UK) have no 3G signal, let alone 4G and my broadband speed is pitiful - but it will do. There is nothing I can do to ramp the pipe speed up. I do end up turning off JS and images a lot of the time, because otherwise it ills me. As a web dev, I don't care for bloat. So I find it particularly irksome, and currently it's enough to deter me from going mobile. Once I'd have dreamed about having a modern smartphone in my pocket with any Internet connection, but the friction currently today puts me off. The UK was recently slammed for its retrograde networks.
