> notice that this takes over 5s. How is anything like that acceptable in 2025 is beyond me

I tried it just now. 18.09MB and 8.81s to show a 67 file diff. The fetch for /diffs was 4.6MB.

The page is usable from about 4s on but things keep loading.

Some my extensions probably make things worse: Stylus, Tampermonkey, Vimium. Others like Ghostery are blocking tons of tracking requests (collector.github.com)

I also find it hilarious that they send some performance data to collector.github.com

If you're going to track me for perf than at least use that data somehow.
