Both of these are still a lot slower than simply installing the font in the OS (or browser) and loading out of the filesystem block cache (or using the already-loaded font in browser memory). Open Sans is Apache License 2.0, so it should be easy for browsers/OS to provide it as a standard font instead of merely the "web safe" set of fonts.
