Chrome DevTools has a feature that will let you try it out. I am right now. On the Network tab there is a throttling option. I added a profile for 56k, and based on some research set it to 6kb/s upload and download as well as 100ms ping. It is painful. Loading this thread's comments page took about 23 seconds, though loading the form I am submitting this comment on only took about 4 seconds.
I think it could be workable if you were to set uBlock to block all images and scripts.
- shampster 8y agoI'd do 56kbps download, 48kps upload, at 100ms. Still loads this comments page fairly fast!

- tracker1 8y agoThe once popular developer site 15seconds was named because that's roughly how long a person would wait for a site to load... I'd say closer to 3-4 now is where I get really cranky.
