According to foreign media reports, a test report released by Microsoft on Thursday showed that IE8 was loading faster than Chrome and Firefox when it opened multiple websites.
Microsoft gave the speed to load IE8, Google Chrome 1.0, and Mozilla Firefox 3.0.5 to 25 websites around the world, with 12 leading IE8, Chrome winning 9, and Firefox winning only 4 times.
In addition, this article contains six Chinese websites.
In addition to Baidu and sousearch, the loading speed of QQ, Sina, thunder, and Netease is quite slow. In particular, it takes about 15 seconds for the three browsers of Netease to complete loading.
The accuracy of Microsoft's report is questionable, but it still shows that Microsoft is trying to change the external image of "slow response" to IE. Microsoft also said that this report is not to prove which browser is faster, but to prevent users from worrying about loading time for IE8 when selecting a browser, focus on other aspects of browser performance. Amy Barzdukas, senior director of IE, said that Microsoft believes that all browsers are fast, so the speed should not be the main basis for users to make choices.
