I have an animated gif.

It's a progress bar and the animation is a light which is moving from left to right and then back from right to left in a loop.

The progessbar has a width of 250px.

Every e.g. 100ms I'm adding 1px to the width of the progessbar. So after a short time it has grown to the full size.

Then it is shown for a specific time in full size.

I've made the animation in photoshop and it has 58 frames that are displayed with 0.05 seconds delay, that the animation is smoothly.

But the animation is not smoothly (it's too slow) in internet explorer. In Firefox and Chrome it's working well.

What is the best do to?

It seems that IE slows down GIF animations to 0.1 when faster than 0.1. See this bug description.

For detailed explanations see also this answer.

According to this MSDN Blog, IE 10 will support up to 0.02 frame rates:

IE10 Consumer Preview increases the supported frame-rate; frames may be shown with a delay as little as 20ms. If the server specifies a lower delay, the animation is delayed to 100ms for legacy compatibility.
