It's really quick to load the HTML from Chicago because I'm using Rackspace's Chicago hub -- it better be fast! :)
There's not much I can do about the analytics pixel but since it's at the bottom, it won't block user's from using the website. As for the site loading slowly in South America, I might be able to speed things up by adding a CDN but I don't know what that'll run me. If the price is not insane, I'll set it up.
