Looks like a known issue (eve on my P4 2.4 GHz 2 GB machine). It does load eventually. I know the Yelp author is aware of these issues, and has fixed the performance in yelp-2.5.x. I just tested the Gnumeric help, and it loads almost immediately. This means you should expect this problem to be resolved in GNOME 2.6.
