KB942840 is must for Vox people using IE
I’ve been experiencing some embarassing slowness on complex JavaScript sites and apps including our own Vox, when I use IE6 on my Windows XP ThinkPad X40 laptop.
Today it’s fixed with this Microsoft KB942840 XP update. I’m not sure if it was installed via normal Windows update (it’s not a security update so it’s not probably mandatory) or via ThinkPad software update.
Vox compose screen now shows up in a sec, and other 2.0 sites using hell complex JS code is much much faster and no choking with CPU 100% usage. Oh, and do you hate the 3-seconds lag on Vox edit screen when the browser tries to fetch content body using XHR? Now it’s brilliantly fast. Hooray.
IE6/XP をお使いで Vox その他のJS使いまくりなサイトのロードがどうも重い（CPU100%で数秒固まる）という経験をお持ちの方、KB942840 を入れましょう。自分の X40 は劇的に改善しました。Livedoor Reader で出てた通信エラーもほとんどなおったし、Fogbugz の入力欄で10秒くらい固まってたのも何のことやら。
