I think the subtext here is that they're trying to speed things up, while Facebook seems to be slowing down every other page I visit by two seconds or so.

Best fix is to use the NoScript extension for Firefox and in Advanced->ABE add the following so FB crap only loads when you visit facebook proper:

  Site .facebook.com .fbcdn.net .facebook.net
  Accept from .facebook.com .fbcdn.net .facebook.net
  Deny INCLUSION(SCRIPT, OBJ, SUBDOC)
To be fair, isn't Facebook moving towards using iframes (similar to what this article talks about) and away from fbml - facebook markup lang?
