Do you have Speed Tracer (http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/speedtracer/) or Firebug installed? Can you see if the time spent is waiting on the request for the iframe content to be returned from the twitter origin servers? If I had to guess it's the response being slow returning and that's the delay that you are seeing. We've got some World Cup stuff we are starting working which is going to have @Anywhere on it so I'll have more experience with it. Having gone through this with another companies Social Widget launch recently I can tell you it's a crapshoot as to how quickly the content renders in the browser. -steve
