Does News.YCombinator.com load faster in IE for you?

from the self-post dept.

When I navigate to http://news.ycombinator.com/ in Firefox 2.0.0.17, it shows me just the main header (the orange bar) and then it takes an average of about 8 seconds for the list of stories to appear.

Doing the same in Internet Explorer 7, everything loads just about instantly.

Does anyone else have the same experience?

That happens to me sometimes. I always assumed that it was server lag because its very inconsistent.
