Random Babble actually loaded quicker for me than Lets Talk ...
I did another quick test and here's the debug information (we're in Debug right now which runs slower than Release). We've been in Debug mode since yesterday.

Added the pindgdom.com stats too, although not relevant to your mentioned concern. I was just curious, lol.
