sunrisesplicer Posted January 3, 2006 CID Share Posted January 3, 2006 Consider the following, any and all help is aprreciated in advance. I have a small network. On one PC I use IE to test my speed. I get 4.4M, I then use Firefox to test my speed again on the same PC, and I get 6.4M. Ok why is this happening? I have another PC on the same network and when I test with IE and FF I get 6.6M.

Shug7272 Posted January 3, 2006 CID Share Posted January 3, 2006 Have you cleared your cache in IE lately. Try clearing both and retesting. Also test with the same size test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunrisesplicer Posted January 3, 2006 Author CID Share Posted January 3, 2006 Actually I just ran the tests again. IE on 2 PCs......4.7M FF on 2 PCs.....6.2M IE cookies,files, and history all deleted same on FF. Both PCs using VanBurens CableTweaks V8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decade Posted January 3, 2006 CID Share Posted January 3, 2006 Some browsers are just faster that others....Fire fox is half the speed of IE for me and its different for others.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both PCs using VanBurens CableTweaks V8 Decade is partially right. We have seen differences in speed tests with different browsers, and while I dont claim to understand why I can say I have never seen this big of a difference.

sunrisesplicer Posted January 3, 2006 Author CID Share Posted January 3, 2006 thanks again. I just found it odd. Plus, at first I was going crazy tweaking things and doing this doing that. Nothing would work, then I opened Firefox. I was like Whaaaat? Just thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone else sees this much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
