Here's a link:

There is a link on that page to the slow version, so you can flip back  
and forth.

I'm seeing a flash on safari like I reported on FF from that URL. Even  
more interesting, occasionally (rarely) the Safari doesn't show the  
problem.

If you download all the files:

and play with it locally (e.g. a file: URL) you'll not see the flash  
in Safari after the cache is full.

Something to do with latency affecting the timing?? Maybe the css is  
being delayed just enough?

There are no console errors in either Safari or FF. How do you check  
this?
