I just updated my last message to add info on IE 7 running on the same 
machine as the other browsers and pasted it below.  IE 7 was very close to 
being as slow as IE 6.


I just ran SunSpider benchmark...

http://webkit.org/perf/sunspider-0.9/sunspider.html

...on Google Chrome and it says that it took 2505 ms, which I assume means 
that I was getting 60/2.319 = 25.88 on my computer.  I assume that 
computer speed is critical, so here are my result for Firefox on the same 
computer: 60/4.739 = 12.66, IE 6: 60/44.639 = 1.34 and IE 7: 60/41.98 = 
1.43.  Here's a table of my results:

Browser				SunSpider
------------------      	---------
Google Chrome 0.2.149.29	25.88
Firefox 3.0.1			12.66
Internet Explorer 6.0		 1.34
Internet Explorer 7.0		 1.43

IE was so amazingly slow it couldn't have been more obvious -- it was the 
string tests that really killed it (34 s for IE 6, 32 s for IE 7, 1.015 s 
for Firefox and 0.769 s for Chrome).
