Ie9 will be based on DirectX and GPU hardware acceleration, creating the brand new fastest browser Rendering Engine

At today's Microsoft developers conference (Microsoft PDC 2009), Microsoft demonstrated the next version of IE-ie9. One of the highlights of ie9 is thatDirectX(Direct2d, directwrite) andGPU hardware accelerationTo create a revolutionary browser rendering engine ). Its advantages are obvious: SpeedFast, HD.

 

1. Fast

As we all know, DirectX and GPU hardware acceleration have been used for high-performance, high-complexity game engines. Ie9 revolutionizes DirectX/GPU into browsers to create a new platform for future Internet applications. In just a few months, the speed of IE has increased several times, and this is just the beginning.

 

 

 

2. HD

Traditional GDI text is distorted when the font size reaches a certain level. The directwrite technology created by Microsoft in win7 keeps the font smooth and non-distorted. With directwrite, the rendering engine of ie9 can maintain high definition in case of amplification. The following is a comparison diagram:

Currently, the vast majority of ActiveX controls are based on GDI. To achieve the best user experience, consider displayingCodeTransfer to direct2d.

The blogger is currently working on this new rendering engine, and will write some ideas about direct2d/DirectX rendering in the future.ArticleIf you are interested, you can always take a look.
