Load times are determined by bandwidth. I have loaded the site on my cell phone in only 3G and it loads fine. A 4G connection loads great, any internet download speed of 10mps or better should have no issues. Here is a link to a speed test.

Speed Test

I don't have an answer for ads in Russian, I contacted the provider and they assured me there are no foreign ad campaigns.

Computer loads fine here...
(In the big city)
Might want to clear casche and cookies etc.
While the adds are annoying, they aren't as bad as some sites I visit...
If they don't get any worse, I can deal with it...
Some sites I won't even go to they are so many and so annoying, makes my crazy after a reading a few posts and then I leave...
On one site some of the regulars have started to cover the ad cost to make them go away...
The internet was a splendid idea...
But you knew it would eventually go commercial...
Anyone remember cable TV when it started?
Ads have become a necessary evil...
Somebody has to pay the bills!

Malwarebytes program eliminates the ads. Just sayin.

Like an induction system where either the heads, intake manifold or carb could be the restriction the same hold true here. At times it my be the users bandwidth or it can also be the load on / speed of the Ad server which is the limiting factor. Note the load on the Ad serve is not a constant.
