RE: Start Render Time
Yes, if you don't get any html back from the server, nothing to render :-)

In this case I got a look at the test site and it looks like it is a nested table structure to do the site layout (and a non-fixed table layout) so the CPU spiking and likely the start render delays are because of the browser calculating and re-calculating the layout. Moving to more of a div-based layout (except for where it is really a table) will help significantly and if at all possible, moving to a fixed table layout with deminsions all specified will also help.

Run a video test and you'll see the table layout changing as the page loads too so a fixed layout will yield a much better user experience.
