I just wanted to check in to see if you were still seeing slow page loads on your site? I've been poking around a little to see if I can spot any problems. Our flare & site tracking is indeed load balanced and definitely should not be slowing you down. We're actually quite paranoid about this because, as you mention, a service like that is a real bummer if it slows down your site! You also bring up some good points on the loading of our javascript. We don't wait for the onload on purpose -- otherwise we might not be notified of a page view or click under various circumstances. And we're always looking at different ways to incorporate our script to see if there's improvements we can make. So thanks for the feeback, and please let me know if you see any more problems!
