IE 7/8 Slowness Issues with OBIEE 11g

Recently I have been working on a issue with slowness with IE 7/8 and OBIEE 11g (11.1.1.6.2 BP1) before you say it yes I know IE 7/8 is NOT on the compatibility matrix for supported browsers for this version but client had the older versions as their standard with no room for upgrade to IE9. So I worked with Oracle via Sev 1 SR and they supplied a patch which worked nicely and I have come to find that it is now available in the 11.1.1.6.6 patch set which is available at Oracle support. Just search: "OBIEE 11g 11.1.1.6.6 is Available For BI Enterprise and Exalytics [ID 1508519.1]"
