If it's       loading slower but is *not* resolving slower, I think it might be       something other than DNS?              (I can imagine some conditions could make this *be* DNS, but that'd       involve either consistently omitting part of the records so that one       nameserver always leads you to a slower-responding host when there are       multiple, or a DNS-powered MITM attack pointing you to a different host?              But someone with more DNS expertise will probably be able to clarify       this one a bit further.))              --       Nuno Silva              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
