I always assumed speed had to do with your Internet rather than the website.

That's why your ISP touts their massive download speed in their advertisements. How many times have you heard an ISP say "We offer 4MB upload!!!", not often. You probably here "We offer up to 12MB download!!"
A webhost has to have a high upload, so you can download it. Ideally, as a webhost, you will be uploading faster than others can download. That rarely if ever happens. Most websites don't require a massive upload though, unless they are very loaded with weighted graphics, but even then those are usually cached off on your local device that you used to browse to the site with. So the first time you load the site, slow, next time, it'd be faster.
PH is pretty well coded and efficiently designed. No, I am not bias, not at all. 🙂
