Well, I must have a "special" tablet: while everyone raves about everlasting batteries (mine lasts only 2 hours) and speed improvements with each system update (mine is as slow as ever), now with tear I don't notice any speed improvement wrt microb.
In fact it seems slower to me (perhaps because microb starts rendering the page as soon as possible, while tear has to download it almost completely before rendering) and the rendering is worse.
Do I have a cursed tablet or are the pages I visit that are especially problematic? (e.g, slashdot, this forum)
