How slow is it? Genuinely asking because I wonder if it is much larger / more complicated than sites I've built so far.
Most sites I've created are _usable_ in about ~500ms, though they take quite a bit longer to fully load. There do appear to be tons of scripts and tracking crap loaded after initial load, but through (what appears to be) above-the-fold handling and a pretty quick (200ms) time to first byte they appear fast-ish.
Do you add a lot of custom scripts?
