: First site: 3.1MB total xfer, ~250K of JS gzipped, ~850K unzipped. Ignoring the 1MB background image, still unusable on mobile.

: guess what you get for ~850K of JS? A form that asks for your location. And a menu.

And mind you we do a lot, lot, lot more than a few divs / input form. Full-fledged medical management software.

: I'm sure the apps I trace also do a lot more. Problem is paying for it all up-front. Traditional web doesn't have that problem.
