The bits about dial up ring a bit hollow when this page clocks in at >700kB and more than a hundred requests.
- talmand 9y agoWell, being part of the problem doesn't prevent one from complaining about the problem. But I see interesting stats in my network panel: HTML - 33.25K CSS - 65.89K (the bulk of which is Twitter, which looks to be the same stylesheet loaded multiple times; 3.2K without Twitter) JS - 53.62K (it appears all of it is Twitter) Images - 658.75K Media - 206.12K Stop using Twitter's code and build for users turning off images/media gets you a half-decent loading website.
- ryanbrunner 9y agoOn top of that, the page is 100% usable and readable with just the HTML, and the images will load more or less in order as you're reading, unlike a JS-driven site which will have that 700KB (or more) as a hard prerequisite to see anything.
