I have traversed many of these same issues and here are a few things I have done:
I have used the bit of code in the earlier link to override the search for a maximum z-index within the dialog plugin. This code seems to only be needed for multiple modal dialogs (a situation that I have not needed yet). I also build my dialogs ahead of time and use the auto-hide option. This makes them open a little "snappier" rather than building/loading at a UI event. Like many developers, I loath IE. As you have indicated, pages with a large amount of content can bog down in IE. I have begun using jqGrid (http://www.trirand.com/blog/) to do pagination. I have been extremely impressed with this plugin and would highly recommend it. Hth.
