The only drawback to Ixquick or Startpage proxy - or benefit - depending 
on viewpoint, is they disable java script.
Which most Tor users want, but some pages won't load at all w/o it.
Unlike with NoScript, you have no option to enable any JS (select 
trackers / domains) using the proxy.
If the page works using the proxy - great.  If not, go somewhere else or 
re-access the page with TBB & NoScript to allow the page's domain, at 
minimum.
