I don't think he was being rude but was instead simply saying "hey check this out, maybe fix the loading speed before adding stuff that slows it down" is how I took it and besides know you now a link to a handy tool

.
I've used that before, one client ran me ragged making sure his site loaded prim & proper but I didn't mind was fun making it fast and btw don't be ashamed of that page load speed, your site is loading faster than mine LOL just so long as it truly does not take ages or hang you'll be just fine, I find that often times some tend to place too much emphasis on that (ohh the serious ones on here will disown me for saying that just now

) I say if the site works, loads in moderate time and content is good then no worries.
Edit: Ahh posted about same time as Max but yeah see he was being helpful as I suspected
