fastest browser?

yea chrome 6 is more simple and serve flexibility
but my chrome 6 has a bit weird problem the stop button (which also the refresh button) is a bit miss-shaped.. there's an additional line on the left side of the button..

 

I use Chrome 6 Developer's Version, the past update gave Chrome a new look:

 

If you want to account for pure speed... Opera 10.60 is the fastest per benchmarks.

Yes, it beats even Chrome in the speed factor, while still providing a crap load of features that you'd need to install a-bazillion extensions for on other browsers .

 

That's the name of the browser. Basic Browser.

Basic Browser - Free software downloads and software reviews - CNET Download.com

 

really? I'll try that later

 

this is mine
how'd you get the home button?

 

Click the wrench, go to "options", click the "Basic" tab and check "show home button on the toolbar".

 

thanks!
oh 1 more thing.. could you fix this?

 

What is that?

 

How'd we go with the Opera testing? Better than Chrome?

 

could you see there's something wrong on the left side of my stop button? sometimes it is really disturbing

 

okay I just tried that Opera 10.6
on the first time I thought they could attract me with Opera Turbo which they said could increase network speed with image resolution downgrade as the sacrifice.. but they give me this code once I turned on my Opera Turbo:

okay Opera Turbo can't help
next thing I think about is it's speed.. maybe I could browse faster than my Chrome 6.. but how it could be? it even takes 10 seconds for me to open every facebook pages

okay maybe last thing I remembered: Opera Widgets
so I started to browse worthy widgets.. and I can't found anything more than Google Translate

that's it I'm about to uninstall Opera 10.6 now

 

if it's true then something must be terribly wrong with my Opera.. but really, I'm not interested anymore with that red zero
I'd rather back to Chrome 6 with broken stop button

 

I remember that when Chrome moved the refresh/stop button over to the left it looked messed up but as of now on the developers builds with the new ui it is fixed.

 

that would be great.. what is the latest version of chrome 6 actually? and how do we download it?

 

Just my anecdote, but I've been trying Chrome over the past week or so and I've found that Firefox is actually loading pages faster than Chrome. I'll put the two side by side and open a page on both manually. Even when I start on the Chrome window first, Firefox is still faster.

I also don't like how Chrome doesn't seem to have a good way of clearing browsing history. For instance, if I have it pinned to my taskbar, I can still right click and see my most visited pages and recently closed pages despite the fact that I've cleared the history and cookies and used an extension called "Click&Clean." Maybe I should try the Incognito window, but it annoys me that I have to open a whole new window as opposed to Firefox and its private browsing option which doesn't need a new window at all.

Lastly, I've found that my cpu usage spikes from 9% all the way up to and beyond 50% while using Chrome by itself every time I use it. Firefox occasionally spikes over 30% if I'm watching YouTube videos, but that's it. Memory usage is about the same until I have about 7+ tabs open on Chrome.

I might still launch Chrome here and there for a little longer, but it looks like I'm sticking with Firefox.

 

Right here, downloads for Windows, Linux, and Mac. Choose the Developers Channel for whatever platform for the latest Chrome 6.

 

well you can actually clean browsing history without that extension. simply click option -> under the hood -> and 'clear browsing data' in privacy line

for the cpu usage I agree with you.. you can look another sample like chrome always count as many applications in task manager (probably 10)
yet I guess it's fair as the efficiency and flexibility as the comparison

if some said that chrome is a browser designed for beginners I would say indeed it is.. considering it's simple preferences and not much we could reorganize the setting
but really.. I don't need advanced browser once I use Chrome
and I just love its extensions (which some are similar to firefox of course)

 

I've tried that, but it still keeps the "Most Visited" and "Recently Closed" lists on the taskbar icon, even if I try closing it and re-opening. There doesn't seem to be a way to keep those taskbar lists from forming.
