Is WC working better with Firefox?

Wednesday, December 14, 2005 by Cyberworld | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Well recently i've been doing some page load tests, download and upload time tests and i find that Firefox works way better than IE, especially with WC! Is it random or is WC configured/optimized for FF? Anw glad to see it happen! Super quick page loads!

I know this is a bit 'old' but yes it does work quite a bit better with FF.

Have you checked the total time it takes for a page to load, or is it that it feel faster?

One thing Firefox tend to do is render tables as they are read, while IE waits until the whole thing is read. So with a site that uses table layout like WC you can often see content appear quicker in Firefox.
