I predominately use Firefox and Chrome, on both Windows and OS X, both from my home office and a corporate office.

It doesn't really matter which one I use from either environment, it's the loading of the off-site content that hangs stuff for me.

I find it to be a big problem for a lot of sites that now incorporate various third-party served content... if the ad-server is slow in responding, the main page that it was feeding will not render until it's been provided.

A lot of web pages don't provide the required information to build the page until that other content is loaded, so it appears to hang in a white-screen until it gets that other content.

If I enable my ad-blocker, the problem goes away, for the most part. But I'd rather not do that for sites I want to support.
