Web browsing was really snappy ! I have added some more programs including Gaim and generally tinkered around and today I notice that browser sessions are much slower. Looking at my router lights there seems to be a delay after pressing enter (after typing the URL) then ... some seconds later the page comes streaming in. Its odd because I noticed this exact behaviour some months ago when I tried out PCBSD. Everything starts of nice and quick as far as browsing the web is concerned then after some time / event ? this delay gets introduced ? How would I go about trying to figure out what is causing this effect ? Thanks !
