Achieving great site speed is not just a coincidence, as there are lots of efforts being put in to get there. Choosing the right tech tools for the job, optimizing the code for performance, and maintaining it all besides scaling up, all require a lot of competency and planning.
For me, the fastest sites are Google, Twitter, and DEV.
Regarding to DEV, I would recommend reading these blog posts by the co-founder @ben, explaining behind the scenes stuff:
What are the fastest sites you visit daily?

I dunno if my site is "fast".
....But feel free to test! >:D
⚡ google
⚡ dev.to
🐌 producthunt is not so fast
⚡ github
⚡ theverge
⚡ my website qainsights :)
Whoah, that's the speed demon! I need to check Preact on my side project or in some playground. :D
Dev.to and SpaceHey (a myspace clone launched a few days ago).
Mrzool said (on the hackernews comments):
The first answer (by userbinator) explain the speed pretty well:
x.com
Hahah, yeah, still remember his tweet 😄😄
I had done my answer in my mind before reading the post actually. I totally agree with you. I had thought just about DEV though.
Cheers,
It'd be my own: msfjarvis.dev. I don't browse its actual contents daily but I do frequently use the redirects I built into it, which makes links such as msfjarvis.dev/aps and msfjarvis.dev/g/redirekt possible.
Good job on it 👍 Minimalistic, easy to navigate, great contrast, and most importantly snappy ⚡
Superhuman is very impressive, but they combine an extension with a great ux. Completely keyboard driven :)
My blog. Hehehehe...
