So we are going to ignore the slow 3g network aspect in the quote you are referring to then. Sigh.

The very minimum admissible speed of 3G is 144kbps (barely faster than a 56k dialup, this is what we're talking about). The hn site should load in less than 3 seconds even on such an unrealistically slow network.
