List-Id: <debbugs-submit.debbugs.gnu.org>

Steps to reproduce
==================

1. Open a Web browser
2. Go to https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/packages/
3. Download the page, and check its size

Unexpected behavior
===================

* The page takes almost 60 seconds to load when visited for the first
   time, and about 30 seconds when is cached.
* The page is 9.9 MiB in size.
* The browser becomes unresponsive while the page is loading.

Expected behavior
=================

The page loads so fast that nobody will file a bug.

System information
==================

I tested the page with the following hardware and software:

Desktop computer
     OS: Debian 8.6
     PROCESSOR: AMD Ahtlon X2 245
     RAM: 1.9 GiB
     BROWSER: Firefox ESR 45.4.0

     PROCESSOR: Quad-core 1.0 GHz

Additional information
======================

I plan to redesign the packages page, and submit a proposal to fix
this bug.
