I was wondering the same thing. This could have a lot to do with loading the assets and images. It also might make a big difference on browsers. I know that IE usually shows you the layout of the page and loads the graphics within that. Many time I have seen people using netscape and it keeps the screen blank until all images and everything have loaded. You might want to try a simple online tool to test the total download time of the site. I use the one at echoecho.com that checks for HTML validity, load time and some other stuff. The tool's direct link is http://www.echoecho.com/toolhtmlinspector.htm
Hope that helps.
