Actually the IE9 SS issue was a bug. It's since been fixed and no longer displays this weird behavior in IE9.

IE9 also does well on other benchmarks too like the Facebook graphics benchmark, where I think the only browser to beat it was FF4.

There were multiple issues. There was a straight up bug, which was fixed. But the perf delta remains.
You can see this for yourself - run the test referenced in Rob's post above. IE9, right now, reports a 13-14x slowdown on that test with trivial changes.
I don't believe so. I had checked this and the perf issue went away. Maybe you're referring to a different issue. Can you post a link with perf data?
