While the page is loading, the GIF animation is too slow.

Maybe bug 717872 will fix this?

Is the image already cached locally but it is playing back slowly while the page is loading? Or is the image still being loaded?

This only seems like a bug to me if you can confirm that the image was already cached locally.

If it is not cached, we can't play the animation any faster presumably because we don't have the next frames while the image is loading. The other option is to not start playing until the image has finished loading, but that doesn't seem like an improvement.

The animation is slow also when I reload the page (and so the image is cached). Obviously the situation is better when the image is cached than when it's not cached.

The website doesn't exist anymore.
