Seems like some say yes and others say no, just like with other updates. Basically no one really knows what it will be like in the eyes of someone else.
Got a tip for us?

It's not. It's 60fps and does play in 60fps in YouTube app. I have no idea why it plays 30fps in browser
it actually plays 60fps in youtube's Video manager as well, wtf
iOS 9 has been the laggiest update I've ever used. Doing things like sending a text message is a chore because it takes forever.
Why is that something that takes forever? Doesn't seem like that's the case for most.
Is anybody else finding that scrolling to the right within App Swicher is too fast and often buggy relative to scrolling to the left? For anybody with accessibility problems, this makes it rather difficult to use as opposed to the smooth slower scrolling of 9.1. I've reported it - could anybody else who doesn't like this change also do so?

Never had an issue with the 6s+ out of the box, but recent updates have introduced a little lag. Not always, reboots usually resolve them but it's obvious it's not quite as smooth as it can be. The whole frame rate issue is contentious for sure (especially the whole 3d touch thing where it pops up slower than a 6s, something that I can't personally see with my own eyes). Lag is lag though and I've seen the odd stutter. Roll on 9.2.

Safari is much quicker doing successive swipe to go back/forward. Previously it would pause and block the action whilst the page was (at least partially) loaded. Now it's either quicker loading pages or allows a the action before it's loaded (still not quite as good as the back/forward buttons which register all successive taps)
anyone agree here? was one of my feedback items from 9.0 that had its date modified repeatedly after submission so I think they were working on it

Yes, it's much quicker.
Overall, my 6+ just feels so much smoother on 9.2 b1. The stability has always been there on iOS 9, but now you can tell they're working on performance. Can't wait for beta 2!
The only issue for me is restrictions menu is not translated properly. Otherwise it's solid. I'm sure it'll be much better on the next beta which we probably get next week
Since installing 9.2 beta one I've noticed that the majority of the websites I visit all load either a blank white page or the imbedded videos just load the boxed layout. When refreshing browser it does it again. I have to choose for the page to reload WITHOUT content blockers for the page to load properly. Call me silly but having to load a website without content blockers defeats the purpose of having content blockers installed in he first place?
Is anyone else experiencing this?

I have three different ones installed that I've been trying out. I have the "controversial" Been Choice installed as well as Purify and Crystal all installed.
You know there is another thread if you want to discuss performance, right? At least that's what you tell me when I'm the one talking about it:
After two days of not posting here, it's still all about the performance, probably because it's a real issue. Now that I see it doesn't matter that we talk about frame rates here let's see what happens when 4x the power of an iPhone 5 pushes only 2x the pixels:

I have Crystal and Purify installed; I only get blank pages when Purify is enabled.

Wow.With RT on it's a silky 60 fps and without it it's a laggy mess.Worse I saw the atrocious frame skip as it returned to homescreen
Stutter has never really bothered me, I'm not someone who really thinks it gets in the way of the many useful features that iPhones offer.
however I will say 9.2 actually seems to have introduced more stutter on my iPhone 6 when opening and closing apps and unlocking. like really bad stutter, 2-3 fps, not just a few dropped frames. will see if it settles down. it's only about 5% of the time

I went into Settings and turned Purify off and reloaded a specific page that was coming up blank and....whatayaknow the page loads up as should.
Do you think it's a bug within 9.2 beta 1, or something on Purify's end?
Something on Purify's end.
It happened prior to the beta and in the final. I stopped using it, because of this issue.
Maybe both, but I had the same problem with Purify, that's why I changed for 1blocker
I also feel this. While animation seems smoother, there's some kind of random stutter that isn't there—happen occasionally on 9.2b1. Maybe I'm just imagining something.
