Matt Cutts said about three times during Pubcon that the page load time will become important sometime in 2010. He didn't mention whether this would be averaged across a site or whether it would be evaluated per page. My guess is the former. I don't read his blog every day so I don't know if he has elaborated there.

We turned on gzip compression at our site a few months ago, which is something most sites can achieve easily.
