This is terrible misinformation.
The rules in AMP designed to speed performance are extensive.
Lots of things you can do in HTML - linked style sheets, synchronous third party java-script and ad frameworks etc etc are heavily restricted. There are size limits even on the inline CSS I think or even on the separate web worker javascript even animations are restricted so they can be accelerated.
The speed increase is not just because of preload. Turn on dev tools and look at network round trips / page size / CPU usage on an AMP vs nonAMP page.
- RonanTheGrey 7y agoThanks for the downvote just because you don't want people to know the truth: all those "parts of the standard" that "make pages faster"? Don't do much at all. Bother to read TFA please - the average AMP page still loads in roughly 8.5 seconds on normal 3G. What makes them seem "fast" is Google preloading their content on the search results page and using Google's CDN to serve what remains. YOU are spreading misinformation and one might ask why.
