Hello and thanks for reading.

I've been using Google's library API for all of my jquery includes for
some time now.  I've noticed though that every once in a while a page
will hang for a second or two and I'll see the google api include url
in my browser's status bar, leading me to believe that including my
scripts from google's servers may be introducing a lag sometimes.

My question is... if a browser already has this library cached, does
it even need to hit the server?  Is it just checking to see if the
cached copy is current and if so it doesn't download the file?  Or
could it be that I'm not taking advantage of the caching?

I thought that including the libraries from google was enough and that
caching was done automatically.  If this is true then maybe the
intermittent pause is just a busy server every once in a while
checking for the browser to see if it's cached library is current.
This makes sense to me, and it's okay I guess if there's a bit of lag
every once in a while, but it would be nice to have a definitive
answer or to know that there's something more I should be doing.
Anyone?

Thank you for your time and expertise.  Google and it's APIs and
especially Google Chrome are GREAT!
