I am guessing. On many dynamic web pages, as you arrow down or press Tab,
much of the content of the browse buffer is being rewritten with each
keystroke. When you are in Browse mode, W-E has to be ready to read all of
that stuff, so your computer is constantly processing a lot of data. This is
why Read to End sometimes doesn't work correctly or consistently in web
pages anymore.
When you are out of Browse mode, W-E only has to speak the item that was
focused with the Tab key, which is usually a shorter string. Some of these
pages are really web applications, relying on a lot of JavaScript to
continually alter parts of the page as you traverse it.
As I said, this is only a guess, but starting at Window-Eyes 9, as well s
newer versions of JAWS and NVDA, this is the web world we need to grapple
with.

Subject: Question Concerning Browse Mode
This does not rise to the level of a complaint; just a curiosity. This
occurs on my IE-MSN home page, and certain websites, most notably,
http://www.nyrmb
When I tab through the links in browse mode, WE seems sluggish, but if I
turn browse mode off, I can tab faster and each link is read
consistently. Most other sites I've been to, don't have this issue.
Can anything be done?
Nick
