Yes, SI and only SI is very slow for me too in Midwest with Comcast cable modem.

SI site sometimes seems to take 10 to 15 seconds to open a page or respond to a request.

Sometimes opening another Window to another site seems to wake up the SI window when it has not responded in 30 seconds. May be my imagination but I think that trick works on some types of slowness because I've heard Windows IE only uses half a handshake when sending a "request" and not sending a "reply" response when some sites expect it. I am probably describing that all wrong, but I think it is a unofficial shortcut used in IE.

Anyway, yes SI wa-a-a-y slow today for me.
