Does the MIUI rom alter the stock Android UI in any significant way?

How do they achieve better performance than other roms? Better drivers or just more tuning?

It's a lot more iOS like. No more app drawer, instead all your applications are icons on the homescreens or in folders on the homescreen. Also there's an iOS like dock at the bottom where you can put up to 5 icons.

I can't really comment on how they get the better performance cause it's closed source. All the ports for the various devices are using the drivers from CyanogenMod I believe so it just has to be better tuning.
