Re: [MRBS-general] IE v FF

I can't see any noticeable lag here, on ie8 and windows 7. The page loads in well under a second. Although having said that chrome is a tiny bit faster, but i would expect that. :) Is it an xp thing? Or maybe a proxy issue? I think we have it added to our exceptions in Internet Explorer. It may be worth using Wireshark to look at the network traffic and see whats happening, if its trying to load a file that cant be found or something along those lines.

Yes, I agree and we do test on IE6-9, as well as Firefox, Chrome, Safari,
Opera, Camino and Konqueror.    However the performance issue I've been
seeing on IE while noticeable is not significant.   But maybe you're seeing
something worse?
