I can safely say that the site runs smoothly, so I really do not know why you would think that the avatars would bring such a draw-back at speed.

Because we are trying to be conscientious of people with limited/slow bandwidth and/or limited processing power. Obviously this other site you're referring to has not chosen to make this a priority, but just because it "runs smoothly" for you doesn't mean it does for everyone.
Besides, there's no way we're going to allow people to allow upload files of "unlimited size" on the servers here. The potential for abuse and griefing is absurd, not to mention the server doesn't have "unlimited space" on it either.
