OpenCV: comparing the speed of C++ and Python code on the Raspberry Pi for stereo vision

We're moving our blog from Medium to the stereopi.com If you find some bugs (images, broken links etc. - please, let us know).

Does a long time to load considered as a bug?
On my current connection (24Mbps down / 30ms ping to stereopi.com), it takes 39s on mobile phone before being able to start to read (4-5 seconds on PC). I have not read the article yet.

Hmmm... I'll look at images size, as a lot of them are high-res. ANd also will look in JS load time. Thank you for your notice!

Stereomaton, today I turned on Clowdflare CDN for our main domain. Hope this helps to load our pages more quickly.

I just tested on good mobile connection (30Mbps) and it took 55s today. There must be something in the script of the blog. The problem is that partial content is not displayed so that we cannot start reading before the end of load.

Anyway, I already read it now.

Stereomaton, I can not sleep while page load is so long
I recognizwed this page has 15 youtube videos, and each of video downloads JS player separately. I will try to use another approach later, but now I turned off "Loading" overlay, so user can see even a partially downloaded content before all YouTube staff is loaded. Hope it will help a bit

It looks better. The page is still long to load, but at least we can start to read it.

It looks like you can have a big gain by lazy loading the youtube iframes. I was not sure at first, but I found a way to block them and my loading time changed from 8s (or 16s depending on where I consider all finished) to 1.5s on my computer today. I cannot test the same thing on my mobile. The idea is to only display a thumbnail and replace it by the iframe on click. There surely exist already written scripts to do this.
