Alternatives to WebBrowser control in WPF?

Question

Hi,

We are working on a WPF app with the web browser control. When the user drags the window, the web browser lags behind the window as it drags.

Does anyone know how to solve this issue? Failing that, does anyone know an alternative to the web browser control itself?

Thanks!

Yes, as long as you don't require IE specific features you can use Awesomium which basically gives the same browser engine used by Google Chrome except for everything is rendered in pure WPF. For a while it was open source but I believe it is becoming a commercial product.
