Done a bit more testing this morning (at home, good broadband connection)

It seems the very first attempt to bookmark (per browser session) is
really slow.

I bookmarked this about 10 mins ago:

http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/DevelopmentAbstraction.html

and the pop-up posting interface took 26.419 seconds to load.

I then tried the same url 3 more times:

9.244
2.524
2.183

Clearly its very difficult to know where the bottleneck lies, without
tracing routes, but I get the feeling from my browsing other websites
that the slowness is on the del server.
