Yes, that version loads faster.

15.855 seconds for load and render.

2.824 seconds for render only.

But on your version, the video embedding element "Google Code-In |
Promotional video on Sugar" is beyond the visible area, only the
sugarlabs title on black background is visible.

Scrolling down by one page using the '×' (multiply) game key incurs a
rendering delay;

1.  if the key is pressed immediately, 9.744 seconds,

2.  if the key is pressed after ten seconds, 2.864 seconds,

Also, if the page is scrolled to position the video embedding element
in the centre of screen, then use forward key to move to another site,
then use back key to move back, rendering time is 14.008 seconds.

Your version loads much faster on my desktop, despite the extra
latency of HTTP over SSL (https).
