Hi, I expect that it’s not a problem at all for the sighted user. My family uses Safari all the time and does not complain. I believe that the slowness for VO users has to do with the OS loading up the buffer with data so that we can do the things we like to do. The entire page contents need to be loaded into the buffer so that we can use the Item Chooser, analyze images, landmarks and web-spots etc. It used to be that it would take forever to load the Item Chooser and now it doesn’t. I’m not familiar with the inner workings of how VoiceOver deals with all this, but that’s my guess. There may be a way of Apple dealing with things differently if we make it known that this is a frustration, but as processing speed improves, maybe it will just go away.
