took about 22 seconds for me, but seemed to stall for about 5 seconds in the middle of loading :-P

  do you have a HDD? perhaps that's memory to disk caching. I have ZERO clue, just guessing.

  Took 6 seconds with Internet Download Manager. By the time I fired up ACDSee, the file was there (running win8.1 on SSD)

I opened it in Chrome 73 & Preview on MacOS to see memory consumption on Activity Monitor. When the full image was loaded up in Chrome, Chrome Helper showed up with ~1.30GB of memory consumption; it sometimes went up to 5.60 GB on repeated tests and quickly reverted to ~ 1.30 GB on average. Preview consumed ~550MB at the beginning and further zooming /zooming out consumed ~250 MB at average. Chrome, struggled a bit after clicking on Zoom. Preview gave a low resolution image when Zoom was clicked and then gave the original resolution. Preview's user experience was comparatively better. Intel power gadget showed CPU spikes during these actions, but nominal GPU spikes; I don't think metal is being used in preview. Edit : RAM : 32GB, Core i5 7th Gen

Memories of Netscape, on dial up, waiting for the picture to load, but now the detail and resolution is so incredible. It's a great way to start a Monday!
