You could tell by looking at the bandwidth usage (This is in Amethyst client. Was intensive on requesting events)
This is just a normal scrolling through global timeline and after looking at hell thread post (4 minutes test).


nostr:npub1x3azxuysp5vmfer4vgs4jn5tmfcx4ew8sh0qnev7gczljxsr7jwqa3g4el do you have any numbers from a real test?

Do you think this is actually the way it has to be, or may it just be due to clients being rather inefficient an unwise on what to fetch and when to fetch it?
Because in principle fetching text, even seemingly a lot, shouldn't be much worse than fetching all the shit you'll have using some common mainstream platforms.
Well. That's the way it has to be. Because that's how nostr currently works.
