NOT It's faster for some people on some machines.I have both installed on two machines and it opens slower on both of them.

Define runs slower? do you mean load slower, draws pages slower??? Do you pre load it into memory so that its always resident (ie does this by default, firefox does not).

I thought I was pretty specific, I said it starts slower as in takes twice as long to load even longer if you're if your starting with a few pages open in tabs.And yes this is probably because IE preloads.I'd rather not have either preload if I can help it but if you let me know how to turn this on and off in either I'll play with it when I have time.Also others have commented that it renders slower than IE this is something I wouldn't notice since I usually start with 4 pages open in tabs which is a hell of alot faster than the favorites menu in IE.
