I tried the http://windowsxp.mvps.org/slowrightclick.htm tips, but still found a delay. My delay was similar to deno's where it was only the first time I brought up the menu (and any menu that contained icons, not just right-click). The menu itself, will appear with no words. Then after it builds an icon cache, the menu items appear. After the icons are cached, the menu speed is normal. So, thinking that I probably was to blame for this, I reviewed in my head what I could have done to affect the icons (particularly the ones that populate my Desktop toolbar and Quick Launch toolbar menus). Suddenly it dawned on me: I told TweakUI to put the LIGHT ARROW on shortcut icons - this deviates from the norm, so I gave it a shot. I actually switched the option to use NONE (no arrow) and have not re-experienced this delay. I'm keeping my fingers crossed, but I think I might have found my answer.
