Internet Explorer and the Windows 10 Preview
The Windows 10 Technical Preview is currently available and offers the latest from Internet Explorer -- HTTP/2, Chakra performance improvements, top-level domain parsing changes and the Internet Explorer Platform Suggestion Box. Available to install by joining the Windows Insider Program, the Technical Preview allows you to see the latest from Internet Explorer.
Internet Explorer on the Windows 10 Technical Preview includes support for new the HTTP/2 networking protocol which is a standardized effort with broad industry support. HTTP/2 builds on Microsoft's experience delivering SPDY/3 support in IE11 and enables improved performance on the Web using techniques including multiplexing, header compression and Server Push.
IE on the Windows 10 Technical Preview also includes several performance improvements in Microsoft's Chakra JavaScript engine. The changes include streamlining of Chakra’s execution pipeline to deliver faster startup, optimizations in Chakra’s Just-in-Time compiler to increase script execution throughput, and enhancements to Chakra’s Garbage Collection subsystem to deliver better UI responsiveness for apps and sites.
In addition, IE on the Windows 10 Technical Preview switches the parsing of domain names to use the algorithms and domain list found at http://publicsuffix.org.
Microsoft has also made available the IE Platform Suggestion Box, based on the UserVoice feedback platform. This is the latest step in the effort that Microsoft announced last April to build a better two-way conversation with web developers. By using the UserVoice voting system, Microsoft be able to see exactly which feature suggestions are the most requested by the web developer community.
