Over the past few days i've noticed that when i go to techcrunch.com it takes 30,40,50 seconds before I can scroll the page smoothly.

I looked at the http requests it makes and its pretty nuts (almost as bad as my company's intranet). Is anyone else experiencing this load latency? It happens on FF, Chrome and Safari on OS X 10.6



It looks like the problem is with the number of requests/response times from all the 3rd party "social" buttons they have on every post .. FB, Twitter, Digg, etc.

You'd think that a site like techcrunch would be all over this. its pretty bad when its difficult to slow for 30 seconds after the page initially renders.
