I say whatever keeps the CPU usage the lowest to minimize buffering. If that's got nothing to do with this, nevermind.
The station and the web site are two different entities.

Currently, SPChat chews up CPU cycles needlessly due to the scrolling "SPChat Welcome" in the bottom left corner. I've found that this can be stopped if you position your mouse over the SPChat logo graphic when it comes around. A small "_" link will appear when you do so. Click on it and it will stop this scrolling.

FWIW, this scrolling, animated GIFs, and certain Flash mechanisms tend to loop (idle loops waiting to break out to do something useful) and consume CPU cycles doing nothing. The results are often times more insidious than the C language select() function.
