Glad to hear it. I find Walmart's web site to be so slow on my PC to be almost unusable. I hate to think what the experience must be like for users on old computers or really low end phones.

I think http://www.foundem.co.uk/ is a good example of how lightweight and fast an ecommerce site can be.

And I bet it was made by just one guy in a few weeks too.

It has a very mid 00s feel to it, I wonder how old the codebase is.

On older PC, dsl (rural), Windows 10, and latest Chrome. It is more than acceptable for me because it works. Lots of cute websites don't because of broken JavaScript or slow library downloads.
