commented: oh I agree, on non-math pages it's not even worth discussing, absolutely worth it. I think though that since the home page falls under the "has math" category now, it's usually the users first experience to the site that's affected. For example on stats.stackexchange.com homepage (quick test), a cold cache finish it at 836ms, then jax.js
, then fontdata.js
, then the fonts, finishing at 1390ms...it's the sequential nature of those requests having the biggest effect...any chance that can be improved? We load the same fonts every time, anything we can do to optimize there?
