Of note is that IE emulated downloads nearly as fast as the native Mac. It's surprising, really. I was getting 300+ kbytes/sec out of it at one time. Surfing with it, though functional, is painful.
I'm not surprised, actually. When it's downloading, it's I/O bound -- it can only go as fast as your network connection. When it's rendering a web page, it's CPU bound, so the speed of your computer makes a big difference.
