JMH · Jun 14, 2012

On Wednesday, Microsoft announced how Internet Explorer 10 while running in Windows 8 was made to offer better JavaScript performance for websites. Today, the Exploring IE blog offers even more information on how website performance is improved with IE 10, this time with sites programmed with HTML5.

Microsoft says that website designers who change their code to have them be more compatible with HTML5 will see a massive increase in page loading under IE 10. The blog states. "In fact, we found that sites in IE 10 got an average of 30 (percent) better page load time when they switched toStandards Mode. The benefit is similar in IE 9 too."
