The page looks like https://i.imgur.com/RqWJb7Q.png for more than 20 seconds until it finishes loading and then just keeps on downloading more and more and more data (400MB and counting). Pardon me if I ignore their ideas about design.
To put that into perspective, that's about 37 minutes of uncompressed CD-quality audio, 20 minutes of high-quality 720p H264 video, or a full installation of Windows 98SE. All of which I think offer far more content for the size than this page.
That said, at least the page is still readable with JS and CSS off, unlike a lot of other pages-turned-into-apps I've seen.
Supposedly Chrome is testing a splash page for sites that shows average speed test grades, I'm sure they'll whitelist their own products.

Also lol at them having the gall to give their desktop page a 97/100 and then saying "Use video formats for animated content. Estimated Savings: 42.57s"
42.57s!
It jumped around 2 seconds into load for me, and I'm on reasonably fast WiFi less than 100mi from Google HQ!
Look at this hilarious bucket of shit: https://i.imgur.com/36CBn5y.png And that's in Chrome!
Firefox actually handles this page's bullshit gracefully, by saying "NO! FUCK OFF, WEBPAGE!" ("Will-change memory consumption is too high. Budget limit is the document surface area multiplied by 3 (730032 px). Occurrences of will-change over the budget will be ignored.")
Of course it would be better if they didn't make duplicate requests in the first place!
