Agreed.
I use mobile tethering as my home internet. Currently reddit loads in under 1 second per page usually. The new JS-heavy profile page usually takes 5 seconds or more to load (assuming I'm willing to enable JS to see whatever crap is on one when I bump into them -- usually I'm not...) Note that that's with full bandwidth. When I hit my data cap, I'm throttled to 8KB/s... The current design of reddit is one of the few sites that I can actually reliably load quickly under those conditions! They should seriously think twice about throwing away something that works that well.
