Flickr Slowness

Man. Is it just me or has Flickr been unbearably slow of late? Loading a photo in a stream starts off quick, then stalls forever (forever = upwards of 30 seconds), then finishes loading. I noticed that they’ve been doing some changes with the introduction of static.flickr.com/6/blah instead of photos6.flickr.com/blah. I was hoping for improvements compared to a couple weeks ago, but no lovin’ yet.

It’s really ruining my daily “random Flickr surf”, and that makes me sad.
