Microsoft browsers always seem fast because they are sloppy and do not adhere to html or html5 standards. Every MS browser since 1.0 will render a page as html if it is missing important tags like <body>
MS thinks it is smart but in reality it allows webpage developers to be very sloppy because if it works in a MS browser it should be good since MS USED to have market share and developers are still programming like MS still has market share. SSL is great since it stops man in the middle sniffing however, SSL/TLS or any other encrypted mechanism is worthless when people use lame passwords especially using plain words like, "best-friend" instead of Qw020)&^87%K490f_+ as an example of a good password. But on the other hand, when using a great password it does not feel good to press submit when a site does not use SSL.
