Just did a little testing on a couple themes. Flexibility3 loads almost twice as fast as FlexSqueeze theme. Thesis theme is about the same speed as Flexibility ~2.5 seconds. I also checked an Xfactor site and found it loaded in about .8 seconds.

Here's a nice tool to check the page load time of your site: http://tools.pingdom.com/

    The Firefox extension Firebug does a better job of breaking your load time down (it also has tons of other features for reverse engineering sites).

    Just wanted to add that YSlow (firefox addon) is also great for finding ways to speed up your website.
