Open up the network debugger (Tools -> Web Developer -> Network in Firefox, View->Developer->Developer Tools -> Network in Chrome), do a forced reload and see what you get.

Even logged in I still get a ridiculous number of things loaded. The biggest culprits look to be the foundation javascript stuff (I'm assuming that's a javascript framework) being loaded from fsdn.com. Every request made, hurts, unless you're lucky to be using HTTP/2.0 (they don't support 2.0), and even then you've got to think about interpreter starting/loading/parsing/executing time. For every script.

They're also passing parameters in the javascript urls (e.g. handlebars.js?1515608140) which really meddles with caching etc.

The latency situation gets even worse if you're anywhere but on a fast connection (so lots of end users in their global target market).

I like the overall look of the new site, but it's a performance nightmare.
