I had HashBackup's web site hosted at Google Sites for 10 years. The recent migration to Sites V2 looked really bad, so I redid it all in Asciidoc.
I downloaded a static HTML-only version of the old site from Google and a cat of all the HTML files was 25.3MB. The new static site is only 1.7MB of HTML, with more than a third of that being the release log. The average HTML page size is 19K, whereas with Google V1, the average was 450K. And it's way easier to maintain now with a text editor and rsync vs pointing and clicking in a browser text window.
The other major problem with the V2 Sites is that the HashBackup release log took 15 seconds to load. It didn't do that with V1 Sites, so this was a new "enhancement". With the Asciidoc site it takes a little over a second. Google has a Report Migration Issues button, but of course they never responded to anything I sent.
