I get the same thing with the text version. I refreshed 20 times and only got 1 that was faster (and only 7ms to boot).
But if you try this in a non-IE browser:

The image demo performs amazingly well! I wish there was a timer for that one but its extremely fast.
- mitchellh 17y agoCORRECTION TO THIS BY AUTHOR: There is a timer, it just waits until all the normal images load (and I was too lazy to wait). Upon refreshing, the MXHR stream was 10.3x faster on my FF.
- mr_justin 17y agoHmm, I tried 10-20 times and MXHR was always slower. Sometimes a full half-second slower. I had some times approaching 1-second load time, meanwhile the "normal" load was consistently between 350-400ms. I know it's just a proof of concept and yes, YMMV, but couldn't they come up with a demo that clearly showed this new technology they invented was worth using?
