IE9b seems to be slower than FF4

You seem surprised ?

With all that advertizing MS did to claim IE9 was the 'fastest of all browsers' it is still slower

IE9 should be great if MS doesn't add a bunch of "accelerators"... which do just the opposite.

At least if Chrome crashes it only crashes the tab not the entire app and that is infrequent even on the beta.

You can turn on and off the accelerator (about:config). Be interesting to benchmark. Any volunteers?

I'll run it on my z800 when the final release is out.

FF is actually kind of fun to use the when the system you're on has more physical memory than the average laptop HDD did about 4 years ago

Charts can say anything they want.....real world use is a different story, and closer to reality. Just sayin....

That's about the size of it.

Charts should give you rough estimate. Not perfect or accurate but it's based on some tests not just a paradox or prophecy. Actually I'm FF fanboy and hope Firefox can still be faster than the current one, also more memory friendly. A hope is a hope, though.
