Metro IE is slow to load pages and sometimes has a glitchy touch keyboard

I was wondering if any of you have experienced similar frustrations. I love the Surface 3 except for the lag I am experiencing in Metro IE. When I click on a link or click on the back button, I am almost always left staring at the five moving dots at the bottom of the page far longer than I would like. The loading times are much longer than if I use desktop IE. I also have noticeable keyboard lag if I try typing forum posts in Metro IE vs Desktop IE. I also notice the keyboard lag occasionally in Metro Outlook. Anyone else find Metro IE slow to load content? I also don't like how the page remains grayed out and unusable until all of the content loads.

A new problem surfaced today (yes, pun intended). As I was typing in "Surface" in the search bar of this forum with the touch keyboard, I noticed that the letter "U" was not registering even though my thumb was directly over the U. Instead, it was registering either as the "I", the "Y", or the "J". I switched over to desktop IE and the U worked fine. I also tried Metro Outlook without problem. I restarted the S3 and the problem was gone. I could type fine in Metro IE. But later in the day, the problem emerged again...once more, only in Metro IE. Is this crazy or what?
