[mapserver-users] WMS Speed vs Direct URL

[Andrew Revering]

I'm curious if anyone knows why WMS is SOOO much faster when I am loading
my maps through a map (OpenLayers) than it is when I just try to pull a
single tile directly through my brower and a WMS url?

It seems like the server takes forever when I just enter a WMS URL into my
browser's address bar, but when I load the same WMS map through OpenLayers
its so much faster, despite loading all those seperate tiles individually
instead of just the one I'm requesting in the browser.

Any ideas?
