It's hard to make a modern comparison. You simply can't visit most of the web because javascript doesn't work. This limits you to the handful of sites that are configured for amigas to visit. Those usually use very small pages with very lightweight use of HTML and few assets. so there's usually not too much to decrypt and pages load in ok time.

Timing Feels a lot like trying to use the web over 3G with first gen,2008 era smart phones. Though with many fewer sites to visit.
