Slow loading of images on product pages (3+ seconds).

[DennisKraaijeveld]

Hi!

Wondering if anyone else suffers from slow loading of (transparant) product pages? On collection pages it's slow to ok but on product pages it will takes 2-4 seconds for the main image. Weird thing is that all other images which are not transparant, load immediately. The main image has the loading prop set to eager and the rest set to lazy so this should not be the issue. I attached a screen cap

Its really hurting experience and performance so hopefully there is some solution or explanation for this..

As you can see it takes 4 seconds to load an image with loading set to eager. While the other images are there.

Same issues for these people. Sounds like an issue with Shopify CDN. Is this issue known by the team and ready to be picked up? It has a massive impact on UX and performance like I said

Anything from the Shopify team? It's not only on my store but on others as well unfortunately

Still nothing..? It is a huge issue and its not client related

Any updates on this issue?

Images seem a bit slow to me. I'm considering using Cloudinary instead, it looks like import { Image } from '@shopify/hydrogen' could support that using the loader prop.
