This was back in the days when the Internet would have very low speed. By 2004 many users already had access to a high-speed Internet connection as this influenced the need of speeding up website as the expected loading time went down to 4 seconds. Five years later, in 2009, the optimal time was already 2 seconds. It is a truth universally acknowledged that good performance speed is a must for every website.
