AddThis image is taking long time in downloading

Dear Sir,

I am using Addthis code and widget in my wordpress based website http://www.gyanunlimited.com/. Whenever I am testing my website for speed performance, one of the AddThis image is always taking more than 3300 ms to display. Please see the below mentioned image URL and HTTP request status.

URL: http://s7.addthis.com/static/r07/widget044_32x32.png
Host: s7.addthis.com
IP: 23.1.60.20
Location: Cambridge, MA
Error/Status Code: 200
Start Offset: 6.001 s
Time to First Byte: 73 ms
Content Download: 3315 ms
Bytes In (downloaded): 522.3 KB
Bytes Out (uploaded): 0.4 KB

I want to download the image from the above location and upload it on my web-host to access it locally. But I am not able to find out the image location in my AddThis widget code. Please help me to solve the above problem.

Thanks & Regards

Gyan

Unfortunately you can't host the image locally. However, most people will have it cached so the response time won't be three seconds unless they've never visited a page with AddThis on it.

Out of curiosity, what's the tool you're using to get that response time? I tried from a couple different locations and the only way I could get a three second response time was to limit my connection speed to 56kbps.
