I'm not sure whether you'll find this noticeable or not, but today I compressed the CSS I was using to provide DejaVu fonts, using WOFF. The Stablehand pages were on average taking about 23.5 seconds to completely load before largely thanks to the size of that file, but now they only take about 18.8 seconds. So now they only load in forever minus 5 seconds, rather than taking forever.

I'm going to see if I can further reduce the filesize by manually subsetting the fonts.
