I have an ipad2 and the ios9 is indeed giving this A5 a workout.. I had a lot of freezes, pop up ads (specially once you have visited the Drudge Report) Just have a look at your website data in the Safari advanced settings..Even by deleting the history the same nasty websites were setting cookies..I went to the private browsing mode and now I haven't seen any freezes, so far no nasty pop up ads, and the website data stays clean except those were you logged in ...Just sharing my experience....

Why don't you just download a content blocker app from the App Store?

Did that and it was slowing everything down with problems rendering the web pages.

not compatible with ipad 2/ A5 , the content blockers need 64 bit to work
