Browser Speed and SI

In the past I have compared Netscape 3.x to IE 3.x for thread reading. I
do not remember the specifics but Netscape was about 20 percent
faster than IE for downloading SI posts. (older versions) IE 4.? does not
work well with my system, I will probably try it when I configure a new
machine. I tried IE 4.? and failed.

I have witnessed the same. NS 2.20 is much faster than NS 4.05; and
NS 2.20 is faster than IE 4 at downloading SI posts. Have not compared IE 4 to NS 4.

S.W.
