It's not that bad. The images are ~20kb each and it fetches ~10 images on the landing page. If I throttle the network to Fast 3G in chrome, the whole site takes about 10 seconds to load.

So it's 10 seconds for 200kb? From my perspective its unacceptable, if your service is working with images, at least present them properly.

Also, it loads more than 10 when you start scrolling.

Why does every thread have to have the same pithy, cheap, criticizing comment about page load speed?

It’s demoing a GAN, not a shiny “blazing fast” web framework. They whipped this web frontend up in a day probably. It’s not supposed to be optimized for your 3G phone.

no, whole site took ~10 seconds to load with chromes Fast 3G throttled network preset.
