Satellite images and OSM elements are rendering very slowly in the editor
Description
Noticed that at least recently there is a huge delay in loading the data while editing the map. Basically every time when you zoom in/out a new set of satellite images is starting loading, but it takes a lot of time and you basically sit and wait why your screen starts showing something instead of just black background. OSM elements are also loading very slowly, but they appear first before the satellite.
This basically slows down the mapping extremely, as every zoom I make renders the screen black and I have to wait for tens of seconds for it to completely load. I attached screenshots and timed it - so it was on this first black screen for around 45 seconds after I moved a screen away and zoomed a little. And then it started showing satellite images squares one by one and finished at around 1 minute 5 seconds.
I'm almost completely sure the issue isn't related to my network speed as Google Maps satellite is loading much faster when zooming in to a new place. Because it took Google Maps 8,12,9 seconds (tried it 3 times in different places) to render all the random satellite place I zoomed it.
