For me in Firefox it only loads the article's HTML (50-70kb) and the favicon (7kb).

Are you sure it isn't some addon you have?

It could be the cookie banner appearing.

It is, the content loads first, then the js for the cookie banner, then the favicon. If the js fails to load (I blocked the request as a test) the page loads just fine, it isn't blocked by that.

The articles HTML is ~60 kb compressed and ~10x that uncompressed, which accounts for both apparent sizes.
