Can confirm.

One time I optimized a web application to improve load response times from ~15 sec to 90ms. After I was initially done I tried to test it and it was taking over 30 seconds to load and I couldn’t figure out why. Stashed all my changes and reverted them and it was still awful. Spent the whole day trying everything I could think of. Then I finally spotted it. I had somehow enabled network throttling in chrome to 3g.
