Pingdom reports 4.8mb (3.3mb of images), 661ms to load, and 298 requests.
GT Metrix reports 2.65mb (2mb of images), and 307 requests.
An incognito window with Firefox on my system says ~3mb and ~265 requests. Just the top six or seven media assets combined that loaded initially weigh in at about 1mb.
Certainly not the worst page ever, granted.

- pvillano 5y agoRelated, in my opinion binary prefixes are better, e.g. MiB > MB (ha)
