If you have a limited amount of bandwidth available, sending a 50K 500x400
JPEG is a lot less costly than sending a 1.3M 2500x2000 JPEG. Also, the
faster the page loads, the more page users seem to like it. ("5 seconds? But
I want it NOW!!1!")

To reach as many people as possible, you should also remember that "slow"
could refer to mental acuity as well as download velocity :-P
