Firebug is better for this job (it's more detailed).

I have never used LORI or Jing before so here is my first shot at it.
I am located on Long Island, NY. I have 10mbit FIOS.

As you can see my Mac crawls loading most pages. In every case it is the categories on the right that slow things down loading one at a time. The pages that went quickly are the profile pages I visited, the help page and the page explaining the points. Other pages display most of the content right away, but then take a long time to finish. Canceling a page load midway prevents me from clicking submit answer, voting or entering text by the way.

I will be happy to redo this in full screen if you don't mind the huge file. This is just a test really. Safari is slightly faster but not much better.

I installed LORI and used Jing.

My ISP is AT&T and I live in Michigan (Detroit Area)

I noticed that most of the pages load quickly.  The ones that seemed slow were the ones that are not accessed a lot (like http://www.mahalo.com/December_30)
