Errors, timeouts, and abysmal load times #12

Description

Your embed script is unusable. You don't have to look any farther than your own example pages to see it. When I try to load your main example page, it threw 21 errors and took nearly 12 minutes to completely finish loading (due to timeouts):

The masonry example page threw 76 errors and took over 27 minutes to finish loading (although it keeps attempting to load the same script that times out over and over):

(I understand that these pages are usable long before what these load times suggest, but the browser still behaves as if the page is still loading- the favicon is a spinning load icon, the reload button is changed to a stop loading button, etc. It's a problem.)

I see similar load times on my own pages even if I only embed a single item. And it only gets worse with the more items I embed, which is what I need to do.

I think there are two issues here, the first being the attempts to load the pixel_tracking script that always time out, and the second being the actual performance of loading all the iframes. Unfortunately, I can't really tell how bad the second issue is until the first one is resolved.

Can you please look into this?
