Bug Description
I'm currently on the end of an internet connection is Russia. This is ~100Kb/s downstream, with fairly high setup-cost per outgoing connection.
Going though the steps of +bugs->
Launchpad could do with a ultra-fast, stripped down interface and perhaps the enabling of server-side gzlp compression in the cases where page-server times to particular IP addresses are detected to be unusually low.
With Web 2.0, the _contents_ of many more drop-downs could be dynamically loaded on-demand, rather than on page-load, even if they are never going to be seen.
Individual problems:
* bug 294658, too much HTML on <https:/
* bug 294656, redundant JavaScript libraries
* bug 294672, too much database time taken on <https:/

While some pages are unnecessary large (e.g. https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu returns 373K HTML(!!)), that's not the only problem: Launchpad itself is also very slow at generating the pages.
