Never thought about winning a major as a way to discover problems like this but...
I've noticed some degradation in BotB performance today, and soon realized the cause lies in the animated thumbnail of my entry. It looks like it's loading in its entirety, full res, then it gets downscaled "in realtime". This is really inefficient imo, and not only it wastes the bandwitdh, but also makes navigating the whole site rather sluggish experience, since it reloads everything again and again with every refresh/changing subpage.
My suggestion is to render thumbnailed versions ahead of time, and directly use them wherever needed. Or maybe even cut the animations to first frame only? I'm also curious what other BotBrs think, and if they experienced the slowdowns too.
