IE 11 on WP8.1 is slower than IE10 on WP8.0! Please compare it if you have a 8.0 device

Over the weekend, i got a 8X and so i was playing around and I found that the FFC on that phone is hell better than my 1020....like night and day.
And then i switched to see if 8.1 really is faster than 8.....To my disappointed, i found that it wasn't.
Given the fact that 8.1 has my current apps and configuration set, while the 8x was stock.
In any case, i decided to test out IE. and lo behold...IE11 is slow as a molasses.
I cleared the cache on both browsers, same wifi, no data
IE 11 loads NYTIMES, at least 2 seconds later
IE11 loads theverge at least 4 seconds later
On most sites, IE11 is slow on displaying the content. IE 10 displays the content first and goes on to display the rest of site. The loading bar on IE11 unfortunately never finishes on some site...
THIIS IS NOT beta software; This is what shipped on Lumia 630, 625. I have the latest developer preview update running on 1020.
Can someone else verify my claim...if so, we need to get this escalated
 
Every and any thing you claim on performance, wait until Cyan comes out to see if it'll improve anything.

I too agree that IE10 felt smoother and faster than IE11 does now on my L820 but since I'm not running Cyan I don't think too much about it.

I just hope for the best.
 
I do too, but sometimes MS screws up the thing we all liked the best about WP. It is hard to look at that and think....maybe MS knows how?
