What ever happened to 10 seconds?

In the good ol' days of...

• 1997, most people would wait 10 seconds for a web page to load
• 1999, most people would wait 8 seconds for a web page to load
• 2006, most people would wait 4 seconds for a web page to load
• 2009, most people would wait 2 seconds for a web page to load
• 2012, most people would wait between 0.1 and 1.2 seconds for a web page to load
• 2013, with expectations set at 60 frames-per-second, we have 0.008 seconds on a mobile device to complete everything — JavaScript, layout, image decoding and resizing, painting, compositing — everything!
