Also note that for the majority of use cases, all of these methods are plenty fast to use. When you start having to manipulate large jQuery collections, .show() and .hide() might become too slow in IE, and you might need to bump up to .addClass() or .removeClass(). Enabling/disabling of stylesheets would only be necessary in the most extreme cases, but if things are hiding to slowly for you, you might want to give it a try.
via Now you see me… show/hide performance – Learning jQuery. Personally I like using the add/remove class the advantage of it already being slightly faster for IE makes it even nicer.
