The current version actually keeps a pool of blank tabs open. This improved Firefox performance quite a lot, but didn't have a major impact on Chrome (although Chrome still outperforms Firefox a lot). The main delay seems to be from the IO of loading the function web page. I'm sure it can be optimized further with browser caching.
