Mobile apps saved to home screen on iPhone may run 2 to 2.5 times slower than in Safari browser

Hi folks,

I took a look and I did not find a post on this so hopefully this is not a repeat.  Take a look at this article http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/03/15/apple_ios_throttles_web_apps_on_home_screen/.  Essentially, mobile apps launched from the home screen do not take advantage of the Nitro javascript engine.  I know that this is completely relevant to work that I have been doing in jQuery mobile so I hope some of you find this useful.

Take care :)
