It's interesting I have a mid computer (3060/i9/80gb ram/ssd) and with gigabit fiber, it still takes a long time. What is taking a while? Maybe it's request load.

Once it loads though wow, the graphics are great, nice little physics effects. Wonder how many online games are like this. Light source/shadow also cool.

On subsequent loads it's fast like it's near 80-90% already.

80gb of ram is now mid range???
ah yeah mostly meant the graphics card, 3060 is lower tier of 30 series.

in terms of gaming yeah this is a mid-tier computer

I want to get a 3090FE just because, but I'm not dropping $4K on that

You are in top 1% in RAM, top 2% in processor, and top 2% in GPU. I would not call that mid range. Hell I am running a 980Ti and its still on the top 10%.
It's unrelenting ha with the new intel surpassing some Ryzen (at the expense of power/heat) and DDR5... crazy.

Yeah I know for dev work can scale down eg. pi zero on a keychain and use cloud resources.

I'd say 16 GB is mid range at the moment.
It took 6 seconds for me (pretty similar computer and connection speed). I am however just 6 ms RTT away from its hosting location in Copenhagen, DK. (I'm in southern Sweden.)
Okay guess it is just a data transfer thing, I'm in the middle of US.
