Is there any caching going on, server-side?

It is ridiculously fast.

I'm not kidding here, I had forgotten the internet could be that fast. Static content, I miss you...

Static content served via CDN with a simple layout (read: many nerd blogs) is page loading nirvana. :)

There is caching of the newsgroup messages, but I don't know about the generated page.
