In spite of an increase in Internet speed, webpage speeds have not improved

That's perfect! Most pages should load instantaneous, at least those serving text for the most part.

I did the same for my website [1], and I hope this becomes more of a standard for "boring old" personal pages and blogs.

Even for most businesses it should be the norm. When you think about it, most businesses have almost no actual dynamic content on their website - other than any login/interactivity features, they might change at most a few times a day...

The businesses with no dynamic content also tend to be the ones who rent a wordpress dev who just finds a bunch of premade plugins and drop 50 script tags in the header for analytics and other random crap.

Interesting. Your site triggered our corporate filter as "Adult/Mature Content". I wonder what tripped it up.

Oh, wow. I have no idea, there is not much content yet, and zero external dependencies... maybe its the "anon" in the name? I mean, I even bought a Dotcom domain to look ok-ish despite my nickname :/
