Well, if THAT'S all then ...
Will you accept full page transfer or do you want to stick with a mix
of HTML and images ?
On complex pages, full page is a major speed winner.
On trivial pages (that don't exist anywhere except Virtual Arachne),
straight HTML wins on speed. I think breakeven is about 16 sec load time.
i.e. Arachne homepage downloads, builds and displays in about 1:10.
The IMAGE of that page only takes 26 sec.
My dial page downloads and displays in 2 sec.
The image of my dial page takes 6 sec.
