IE9 works differently to other web browsers in that it makes better use of the graphics card and Windows features to speed up image download times, and on most computers it succeeds. This test was done on a basic Asus Eee PC running Windows 7. There was a substantial performance increase, making IE9 more competitive against browsers such as Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome.
