In response to post #67632451. #67632701, #67633716, #67637026 are all replies on the same post. BardicKnowledge is, I believe, the main maintainer of NMM and he's well aware of the changes and has been informed along with the rest of us. I assume he will be updating it at some point.

You can blame this entirely on AdSense, who apparently simply have horrible, slow javascript ajax loading the ads. Once the actual ad is served it downloads fairly quickly, but it's taking a long time for the scripts to 'select' the ads to show. -- Hmm. Not the reply I thought I quoted, which I can no longer find. Was supposed to be something along the lines of 'I can't believe even the statiic image ads were taking so long to load'.

It had been a while since I last whitelisted nexus in AdBlock and Ghostery, and I'll admit I had forgotten just how bad the ads were/are. With it off, the site is finished loading within seconds. With them on, it was still going for something approaching 30 before I just shut it down. And out of the 5 or so ads I noticed, I definitely had one annoying video ad going. Now, I'm a full-stack dev so I understand the important parts of the site are still loading in the same amount of time - the DOM and necessary scripts - but it's still pretty annoying to have something still loading and taking up your resources after that long a time. Anyway, this sounds like a clear move in the right direction, and I'll definitely check back this weekend.
