The performance tab is really interesting to me. I pointed my browser at www.mcpressonline.com and clicked a couple links and saw that 1.2 meg had been downloaded to my browser.

Another site that has a lot of images is run by Hans Boldt (http://boldts.net/), but a couple clicks into his site downloads a more modest 300kb.

MC Press would have done well if they had hired Hans to be their Web site designer.
Probably comparing a personal web site and an online magazine is a little lopsided. I'd be interested to see the results of, say, System i Network, IBM Systems Magazine and IT Jungle. My guess is that the first two will be fairly high ( and IT Jungle will be low. I think IT Jungle is largely custom code.

This is the difference not in web site design, but web site tool. The new generation of content management systems create massive amounts of code.
