Can someone get rid of the super-editorialized headline that is not even remotely referred to on the linked page?

Doesn't matter how fast IonMonkey can crunch when Gecko can't keep up to render it. Gecko is sloow compare to Trident and Webkit. Someone please smack some sense into Mozilla.

I assume this is referring to Javascript speed, because the new JS engine (IonMonkey) is integrated into FF18.
