US is faster for me, but I'm in California, USA, so that should be no surprise. :)

It looked like almost the same (with my 6Mbit cable internet) with any advantage going to the Sweden site and I am in Pittsburgh PA which is in the north east area of the country. [EDIT] I retested this logged in as a different user so I could be sure the files were not cached (locally) and the US site took 6.98s while the Sweden site took 2.74s measured with fasterfox. I do not believe the difference was that much the first time. [/EDIT]
