Like the title says. It started recently for me. In the time it takes for one a link in Graphic Violence to load I can middle click onto most of the other sub forums and load several threads in them. It's not a major problem, but it is strange I think. I'm using Chrome and I've cleared my cache. I've tried it in IE9 and it still behaves the same.

Those all load slowly for me.

That one is the worst of all. It probably takes twice as long to load as those other ones. I checked to see how long it takes for several different pages of that thread to load and it was between 30-40 seconds per page.
Those other examples take around 10 seconds.
Most other threads unless they have a ton of content to load do so right after I click onto them. Even if they have a lot of content to load like large pictures they load up text and such beforehand. The threads in Graphic Violence are just a white screen and on my tap the circular loading thing is all I see.
edit:
It seems that after making that post some of those threads seem to be loading like normal. I'll let you know if it returns.
edit:
It didn't stay away for long.
edit: The DC thread just took a minute and 22 seconds for me
X-Men took 42 seconds

Wow, yes, I have been having this problem too. I just assumed it was my computer.
I clicked on the links posted by Macro9 and seem to be having a similar problem there as well as well.
I'm using IE8.

I keep them trimmed, and I still have the problem.
No idea if they stay forever or if they get trimmed after a certain amount though.
I do hope it's being worked on, because this might be the worst shape I've ever seen the forums in.
