Microsoft is tooting its own horn yet again. This time, Microsoft claims Internet Explorer 10 is the fastest web browser on Windows 8. Based on data gathered from New Relic, Internet Explorer 10 is the fastest Windows browser when compared to Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.
“Internet Explorer 10 is fast and fluid, and built from the ground up for real-world performance. Growing evidence shows Internet Explorer as the fastest web browser on Windows 8,” Microsoft stated in an official blog post. New Relic monitors page views for thousands of websites and found that both IE9 and IE10 have the fastest response time in Windows, with IE10 having a notable increase over IE9. Based on the data, Chrome 22 has the slowest response time. This could be biased data, so you be the judge. Let us know in the comments below what browser you find to be fast on Windows 8.
