We give it an in-depth test later.

Thanks to all concerned in this next step.

I can not agree unfortunately, not nearly!!
I installed 4.7.1 now in 3 shops and tested it against quite outdated topic installations.
The new ones dont come even close in terms of speed !!!
The pages are above 1 MB in size!!!!! And regularily need more than a second to load !!!
The completely outdated shops load mostly in under 500 ms and are between 200 and 400 KB in size.
This is absurd!
This applies to ideal-responsive and light-responsive.
What good is a responsive theme if it needs ages to load??

Well, thanks god I have managed to make the old shop 4.1 pass the mobile-friendly test of Google. That means, I have it made responsive and it stays slim for loading much faster than the new issue supposed to run well with smarty 3 and a light responsive skin.
Folks, tell me I am wrong!! I'd like to believe that. But I fear, I am right!
Jesus, what a step back!!!!

BTW, testing in http://tools.pingdom.com

Regards
Wolfgang
