If I'm not mistaken IM clients still work similar to how they are on OS3.x. When you minimize the app, you get updates through push notification and the IM app doesn't maintain continuous connection to the server. When you switch back to the IM app, then it'll reestablish connection and download all the updates that you've missed.

There'll be speed increase when switching in/out of IM apps due to them not needing to be initialized everytime you run them, but there'll still be a pause as it reconnects to the server-side daemons and downloads all the missed messages.
