I gottaa a yottaa score of 63 for a site - YSlow plug-in for FF3 gives me 98 using the blog config and 89 using the regular V2 config (brought down by not having Facebook listed as a CDN).

Edit: hang on it's going up and down a bit, it's at 65 now (giving YSlow score of 83) didn't realise it was going to be dynamically updated. Actually looks like a good site speed summary.

Oo, it's up to 92 now, top 3% of sites. Colour me proud.
They way the system work is that it will collect all the data in the order it arrives. Today we had a bunch of people enter new URLs so some of the requests for data were queued up. We were also experience some latency in getting the data back into the database for a couple reasons (badly timed database backups...)

Sorry for the inconvenience in getting your score promptly. On a good note 92 is a really great score. Our score incorporates the following items:

- Time it takes to download the HTML - Time it takes to display the title - Time it takes to paint the page - Time to Interactivity - YSlow! score

We take all these measurements from different locations so if you get a 92; it means that no matter where in the world you user is - they will have a great initial experience with our site.
