The simple answer is “Deal with it”. 🙂  
But, if you share more information about, for example, the size of files or/and platform, OS(es), browser(s) you use, then maybe people could help you. So far, your question sounds like “I’ve got a problem. Use your telepathic skills to solve it for me”.

@prisoner849 I’ve asked the OP several times to put more detail into their questions, stop posting duplicate questions etc… I don’t think they are listening.

Obviously, that the reason of such misunderstanding is translation software. 😉

It’s weird, those people with unclear one liner questions. I even received a message from someone with the order to look into a thread and give an answer, like i get paid for it. 😂

Short answer would be, simplify the model. Could try [decimating it](https://aframe.io/docs/0.7.0/introduction/models.html#optimizing-complex-models), [merging meshes](https://github.com/jonnenauha/obj-simplify), reducing size of textures… can’t say what the problem is without seeing the model.

First thing of all it would suggest, is to use a binary format.
