Out of curiosity I decided to see if your claim of Dolphin being a faster browser is true and ran the BrowserMark bench tool on both.
Higher is better in this bench test.
Safari scored a 99114
Dolphin scored a 54779
Not only did Safari beat Dolphin, it completely destroyed it.
Why is safari so much faster than all the app store browsers? I tested atomic, icab, and mercury on browsermark and safari got almost twice the numbers they did. I love the gestures / features on the others but safari is so much faster
Also hide some other APIs, e.g. Most third-party browser lags when scrolling. Not developer's fault.Because Apple is only allowing Safari to use the Nitro JavaScript engine to be used in Safari. Everything else must use the older iOS 4.2.1 JavaScript engine which isn't as fast.

Um, maybe just Android?Apple can "thank" their own stubborness if more and more people goes for Win8 / Android instead.
