“Since this latest iOS update, my iPad air has been giving me nothing but trouble. Safari now gets slower and slower the more it’s used until I am forced to restart it.”

I wouldn’t be surprised if Apple is “bloating” their Safari releases to hog more memory, in order to encourage people to upgrade to the new iPads.

I'm not sure they are actively bloating, but I suspect they are not investing much time into optimizing, and deliberately doing so to encourage people to blow more money on their products. They did this with the iPhone, which is what eventually forced me to dump it and move to Windows Phone. Oh well, I bought the iPad mostly as an eReader, and for that it still works fine.
