Speed has been a recurring issue since inception. We really should find a best, common, *test engine* for this and apply it to an empty + a "full" TW, with + without embedded images, perhaps different browsers etc and see what actually makes sense. And ideally an engine that users can feed their own TW's into for comparison. Actually, such a service, even if only an external link, would be a great addition to tw .com IMO.
For online TW's (starting with http(s)) maybe googles PageSpeed Insights <https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/> is the simplest? Could perhap yslow be used?
