The backend number is nice, really, but the quoted load time by the tool isn't. My jenkins loads almost as fast, (and according to the tool faster than HN), and isn't even hosted in a DC. Some pages hosted on the same machine load in almost a quarter of that. Most of that is internet latency, the same pages requested from the same network take just a couple ms. Even Jenkins only takes 65 ms for /.
