Can it be? Did you really find the worst site on the web?

1.07gb, and was still waiting for stalled downloads. I had to pause my folding client because both cores were pegged.

It loads really fast if you have flashblock

I noticed the same thing. That is why I can't use it.

yea benchmarks tend to be based on single tab use, about as unrealistic as it gets. so the whole X is fastest because of benchmark tends to be a bit of bullsh*t.

I have used IE and Firefox, and I use firefox right now... My internet connection has never been very fast, and firefox has faster opening tabs then IE. Not much better but its a little bit of icing!
