Does this mean that with the metal technology stuff like YouTube and Netflix will load faster?
 
What will be faster then?
Graphical rendering by applications that support it.

Apple said:
New to Mac, Metal provides super-efficient access to the power of the graphics processor, enabling you to maximize the graphics and compute potential of your app. With a streamlined API, precompiled shaders, and support for efficient multi-threading, Metal is optimized to allow the CPU and GPU to work together to enhance performance and deliver richer graphics, opening up new possibilities for games and graphics-intensive apps. The new MetalKit framework makes it even easier to integrate Metal into your application by providing essential APIs for controlling drawing and loading graphic assets.
