We have been working to improve the speed and performance of Novelo recently. The biggest improvement in performance was to the story and chapter pages; some story and chapter pages were taking upwards of 10-12 seconds to load. We have managed to reduce this to under three seconds for the majority of stories, while some of the stories with more text/chapters should take under five seconds to load.

We have also improved the speed of the site in general, most pages should now take under two seconds to load.
