So, you mean it takes more time the first load on every web view,
right? subsequents loads in the same web view are not slow, right?

If that's the case, yes, it's somehow expected, there's more work to do
know when setting up web views, the web process has to create the
compositing thread and wait for it to start rendering.

I don't think it has to do with networks. I assume you are trying on
X11?
