Hello all,
Earlier this morning, we made some good progress towards a faster VisualEditor experience by loading the HTML fromhttps://rest.wikimedia.org/, the REST content API that entered beta production a bit over a week ago [1]. Preliminary data shows a drop of mean client HTML load times by close to 40% from about 1.9 seconds to 1.2 seconds.
This is great. I look forward to using the new, even faster VE.
