No, it's not an empty statement. When your site takes 5 seconds to start loading, even sometimes, or if it sometimes fails to load some image or CSS file completely, many visitors will be unhappy to have to return to it, and a lot will just close the tab without waiting.

The pleonasm is not helpful though.
