the 600kb isn't even that bad. it's 2x the amount of requests that makes it so much worse



The JS version loads 4times slower, despite only needing 600kb more.

Goes to show how much effect the large number of requests have.


For perspective that's approx. a quarter of the size of the original DooM. And it's probably minified. And it does little more than fetching info from a couple data sources, formatting and showing it.
