Also I wonder why JavaScript redirection is slow?

Most server-side redirection is implemented with a
Location: http://www.example.comHTTP header (and a 302 code). When the browser reads this in the headers, it (should) immediately stop what it’s doing and start fetching that page.When it’s implemented in JavaScript, typically (depending on how you implement it) the entire page has to load (or at least download) before the JavaScript executes to start redirection.
