For those curious, it's /, then css, js, then 2 svgs, 1 ico (favicon) and 1 1x1 gif. None over 10k over the wire (/ is ~40k before compression)

CSS, JS, y18.svg, and the GIF are fetched in parallel, so they only count once toward visible latency. triangle.svg is fetched after the CSS is done, so it does (though for me, it's done downloading before y18.svg is)
