Aside from flushing he buffer, you should care about how the different
browsers render the page.
In particular, you can run into problems if you are using MSIE, and if your
data is inside some tables. IIRC, MSIE will wait until the inner elements
of the table have been fully loaded, in order to calculate its geometry
(width and height), and render it.
Step away from using complicated table-based HTML layouts, and try to use
CSS-based layouts, and absolute positioning. You will surely see that some
layouts render more quickly than others.
