    Having a smaller website makes it load faster — that’s not surprising.

    What is surprising is that a 14kB page can load much faster than a 15kB page — maybe 612ms faster — while the difference between a 15kB and a 16kB page is trivial.

    This is because of the TCP slow start algorithm. This article will cover what that is, how it works, and why you should care. But first we’ll quickly go over some of the basics.

    That’s virtually impossible. Or back to text-only pages!

    SVGs are even more valuable, with this in mind
