My browser is offloading to my GPU (RTX 3090 Ti) and using 3GB VRAM and sitting at 35% utilization to render that monstrosity.

I'm on a 3080 and it uses 1 gb vram and 22% util. Sure it's still not lightweight, but certainly not as bad as you seem to be experiencing.

Perhaps it depends on other factors like screen resolution and scaling.

probably. I’ve got a 4K monitor with a 1050 Ti and the moment I open the site, GPU usage jumps from 1% to 99% and the fans go wild.

1.5-3GB is used to render your desktop on windows depending on resolution, think mine hits 3-3.5GB at 5k before even doing anything.

Is this an example response from the model?

I feel like that job would fall on them :P

I'm not sure about that

30 mins and not fully loaded on my iPad.

So why not replace it with a gif?

It's dynamic as you scroll down, and scales with resolution. Gif would be a trade of bandwidth for computation.
