Does it? Is it really slower for your customers to download a server-generated page than for them to download a static page, (probably) download a JavaScript file embedded in the page, execute the JavaScript, then download and process server-generated JSON?

Considering they're likely also downloading JavaScript and executing it when using the server-generated page, yes. Let's not pretend it's possible to do everything on the server side. Just now instead of compiling the page in real time when it's accessed, we compile large parts of it long before the user requests it.
