IE vs Chrome #16

Closed bobrinch closed 11 years ago

Hi

I have discovered what seems to be a problem with GarboChess UI running in IE, when computer has to do a simple mate. For example try to preload this FEN into GarboChess UI in IE:

8/5q2/8/k7/8/3K4/8/8 w - -

It will take forever for computer to mate, while it goes fast in Chrome.

I use IE 10 and Chrome 27.x.

Could you please look into the reason for this.

Best regards Bo.

I believe it depends on the speed of the javascript engine of each browser. IE is just slower than Chrome, nothing for Garbochess to fix here I'm afraid.

Yes, unfortunately, nothing much to be done here. IE is still quite a lot slower than chrome.
