I can't see how this is the reason for HN to take 10 seconds for the response of the main page (I mean, the URL fetched from the address bar, not the subrequests the page does), as everything else downloads immediately.
The DNS entries should be cached by the browser (and the middleware), so that this problem should only happen once, but I get this constantly.
Also, I sometimes get an error message from HN, which seems to indicate that this is some backend issue which fails gracefully with a custom "We're having some trouble serving your request. Sorry!" on top of a 502 code.
It feels more like there is something else still broken.
