I had the same problem so I switched to the Google hosted files and
it's *much* faster.
Also, if we use it systematically, the client browser caches the files
between different apps.

You need to replace the load to this:

  <script src="http://www.google.com/jsapi";></script>
  <script>
    // Load jQuery
    google.load("jquery", "1.2");
    google.load("jqueryui", "1.5");
  </script>

Nothing else needs to be changed.
