[Novalug] browser/network responsiveness

Just a longshot suggestion - I'd find a site that has
a large, but mostly self-contained (ie, no refs to other
pages) page.  You may need to set this up yourself.  Try
loading the page two ways, once by name addy, and one
by numeric addy (clear cache before each trial).  If
there's a difference, it might mean that DNS lookup is
a problem, and you may need to find a different/faster
DNS server.  Of course, ya need to pick a site that's
not in your etc/hosts site, etc.
