This website loads an exceptional amount of data for what it is, at least for me. On my browser it makes calls to a site called streamlitapp.com every 100 ms. It appears to be using about 100MB of bandwidth every 10 seconds from what I can see
- robertritz 4y ago100MB is a LOT. Do you perhaps mean 100KB? Streamlit is the framework I used to build the app at the bottom of the article with. It does unfortunately load a decent amount of JS. However it should be non-blocking, which means it won't interfere with how quickly you can see or use the page. It pings back to Streamlit to keep your session state alive as it's running a whole Python interpreter on the backend for each session. The speed index for this page hovers between 1-2 seconds when I test it.
- classified 4y agoUsing a wasteful app to complain about bad page design. Oh irony.
- robertlagrant 4y agoIt seems to ping with about 800B for a response of about the same size every 2 seconds. So every minute that's about 25KB up and 25KB down. I wouldn't do it like that, but to call that wasteful when many websites need 5MB of ad code before they let you see anything is a bit over the top!
