I just tried it with Courier 1.1 over direct Ethernet via DSL. It took 35
seconds to load the CNN front page. Mind you, if I wasn't running NPDS
and a bunch of other stuff, and my cards weren't so full, and I had the
latest install if Courier, ntox, and NHttpLib - it would probably be
noticeably faster.

Can anyone run another time trial with their Courier setup? I'd be
curious as to seeing some comparative performance numbers.
