Nah, a lot of old tech. I used to work on shit like this... loading all your images (including the fucking rounded corners for IE) into a sprite... setting up caching, using prefetching and inlined CSS/JS for critical path stuff.
There was a whole industry around web performance in the days that a customer might be trying to download your site over their 256 kbps connection.
It's neat tech and I miss fiddling with it. I honestly found it a lot more fulfilling than the SPA era of web design.
Come to the HTMX side..
