Site Feeling Faster?


Non-premium member here using Safari?! I'll fire up Opera and FF3 and see how they like it... I refuse to use IE unless absolutely necessary.
Opera: not much of a difference, it seems, even with ads blocked.
FF3: seems snappy, adblock turned on.
Safari: seems a bit quicker (full ads).
btw, I use Safari normally, because I like the font- and page-rendering, and also I like to use non-adblocking on sites like chess.com, where my viewing of the ads contributes something (I hope!)



So...... we did a few things to the site :) Does it feel faster? (It should be especially notable for Premium Members who don't have ads...)
