I seem to be getting a strange first reading using Robin Walker's Speedtest. Each time, the first test produces a much higher result than tests 2 -4 despite deleting temp files and repeating from the source server. I'm on the 2Mb service.

I'm no expert, but was hoping that somebody could explain the reason.

Thanks.
