I've noted that images for the most part take around 3.2 seconds to start receive the first byte.
I suspect the reason is that Thumbor is really slow at generating webp images. The compression might be better, but if it takes 3 seconds to generate them, then it is hardly worth it.
Perhaps we should go back to just using jpg?
@MattBlissett is there anything we can do to speed this up?
