The old adage was that &quot;total page weight&quot; and &quot;number of assets&quot; were the big drivers of slow web sites.<p>HTTP&#x2F;2 should make &quot;number of assets&quot; less of a problem, since it no longer drives multiple connections, assuming all are from the same site&#x2F;domain.<p>Edit: Bloated JS and parse time might be the right contender to replace &quot;number of assets&quot; if you want to point to the top 2 current issues.

It also prevents you from using immutable caching.
