Unpopular truth: Lowering page weight doesn't often help web performance. https://www.speedshop.co/2015/11/05/page-weight-doesnt-matter.html https://www.speedshop.co/2015/11/05/page-weight-doesnt-matte... > Bandwidth is not the problem, and the performance of the web will not improve as broadband access becomes more widespread. > The problem is latency. Most of our networking protocols require a lot of round-trips. Each of those round trips imposes a latency penalty. Latency is governed, at the end of the day, by the speed of light. Which means that latency isn’t going anywhere. Of course, this will get downvoted on an all-text forum. That won't make it less true.
