Fastest Browser..(based on personal experience)

[Edburg]

I just used Opera 10 and it feels lightning fast..even better than version 9

No bugs so far in my usage..but its still alpha

Firefox and opera tied.......lets see who takes the lead !!

 

[mrintech]

firefox

If you are using javascript heavy websites, Safari and Chrome(built on webtoolkit) will work faster than Opera, FF or IE!

BTW chrome is yet to reach a mature stage. And we all know that google products can be in BETA stage for a very long time!

Perhaps the OP should clarify the context of "fast". If we're talking about loading times for stable releases, I'd go with FF3. I've had countless "resolving host" delays in Chrome and Opera 9.62 just isn't speedy enough. For load times though, it's a toss-up between Chrome and K-Meleon. But K-Meleon takes the cake because it has a smaller memory footprint than Chrome.
The default browser on my laptops: Firefox
Default broswer on an older PC: K-Meleon

Opera is best in Speed, No Other browser can Beat! Yeah.

FX 3.1 b2 with tracemonkey pwns em all

Yes. it should mean for only "loading times "irrespective of images, videos,etc..

One more thing. Chrome is becoming faster than ff..i think Google will win this war in near future.

It will take a lot of time to even reach half of the market share FX currently has

It's been Firefox for me. Tried Chrome and Opera too. But I still think FF3 takes the cake. I dont see a lot of difference between FF3 and Opera on my connection but I'd side with FF3 thanks to the addon experience.

who voted for Internet Explorer 8 Beta 2 ??

 

[Sathish]

Hey, its mine.
i just open the four browsers in my system and load the "ibnlive" website.
In my dataplan, ie8 beta 2 loads quicker than others..
Since my intention is only to know the quick loading time instead of feature, i voted for IE8beta2.

I Think BROWSER SPEED DEPENDS on the WEB CONTENT(ads,js,applet,etc) of the page.
Varies with Websites

[garfield_56]

my rating goes with Firefox3...i was an IE7 user but hey... firefox is sooo much faster!!!

 

[spidy333]

firefox 3 is the best, unbeatable..

 

[Vishal Patil]

firefox my choice

 

[ananthas86]

In my opinion,Firefox 3,though it takes more time to start than google chrome,its performance is that what pleases me.Chrome makes my 7 year old computer crawl on its knees with 100% CPU utilization...
I would say,with minimum resources,U cant beat firefox..I have already tried a lot of browsers including opera and safari...

The worst browser i have ever used is safari..

By the way my system configuration is..
Pentium 4 1.6GHz

40 GB 5200 RPM Samsung HDD
Sony DVD-ROM
