Have you tried setting the resource as a static file instead? Any improvements?

No difference whether they are static files or not? That definitely sounds like a server issue then. Usually I avoid putting JS or CSS files into MODX because of the overhead of having PHP render the files, but I understand there are cases where it's quite useful.I'm still testing, but the results turn out to be highly variable. Contrary to what I told Ben above, a static file sometimes is better. But only sometimes, and not for any obvious reason.
How big are these files? If you copy the static files over to a vanilla server, how fast do they load?

Are you using any output modifiers in these CSS and JS files? If so that may be part of the issue since MODX needs to parse these and then generate the files.
