100k webpages were never a thing for the amount of content that we are able to serve these days. Consider http://www.dailymail.co.uk/ as an example. The HTML document alone is 795K. Website such as this would immensely benefit from progressive loading.

There's 90kb worth of actual text. 1:9 text content to HTML ratio.

For NY Times, it's about 1:10.

Sankei.com, it's about 1:4.
