> Why in the heck would you want a webpage to be 100mb+ ?!

Websites have scripts, images, videos, ads, text. Image + thumbnail = 1MB, gallery of images = 15MB, 600 posts with images, thumbnails, comments with avatars = ... ?

My wordpress blog started in 2010 with images, thumbnails is 5GB, last time I checked in July.

But 100MB per page is ridiculous, expect for embedded videos. I'd be waiting two minutes for each page to load.

Also keep in mind that this isn't a traditional Request/Response model. Much (if not all) of a "website" must be downloaded up front via the torrent network, and then run locally. 100MB per request on a traditional site is ridiculous but 100MB for downloading 1 very large web app from the torrent network is not so crazy.

In the top comment by webpage I meant a blog. I wanted to publish my blog on zeroNet, but I can do it only when I remove all images, which misses the point of my blog.

This is not all on ONE page

Again, that is the size of your database, not webpage.
