The 5+ second delay is a little above the average (I'm rarely frustrated enough to actually go off and get distracted by HN while I wait), but notable delays on loading repo trees are definitely common, if not usually quite so high.

We hope to make improvements in this area soon. Hopefully you'll notice them!
