This has gotta be some weird browser or TCP stack bug.  (No idea how though.)

More clues needed.

How long of a delay do you see here?--

This one's very fast, I would say about a second, perhaps 1 1/2 seconds.  Even
the first time it was this fast.  Multiple times didn't improve the speed at

5 seconds.

3-4 seconds is just bizarre.  Makes no sense.  Almost like the browser is off

4 to 5 second delay here too.  I think every time that jump.cgi is used I get
the delay.  I didn't get a delay with mimg.cgi, (the first link) though.

By the way, how did you get those long urls to not split across lines?

(...) OK, good, then this has nothing to do with jump.cgi per se (not that I thought it did, but it's better to be sure just in case). You're seeing the same thing from a different redirector.
