I have noticed a distinct slowdown in speed whenever I am surfing deviantART's search gallery. I have tested this with Internet Explorer and Firefox in Safemode, both were able to load up the same page in near-to-instant times. However with my extensions it slows down to a pace of one thumbnail per 5 seconds. I did the cycle of enabling and disabling add-ons until I finally found one that worked. It was NoScript unfortunately.
Disabling NoScript allowed me to achieve page-load speeds similar to IE and FX-Safe-Mode and none of the options including 'Global allow scripts' allowed NoScript to be active without seriously slowing thumbnail creation.
Are there any deviantART NoScript users who experience the same as me?
And also are there any options or white-list additions I may have missed to move things along faster? I don't like the idea of disabling NoScript just to surf a certain website. I think deviantART's new browsing build might be the reason but I just switched off the deviantART beta-testing option and I still get problems with NoScript.

Hard for me to quantify. Don't know if I'm noticing a difference or not?
