Browsers War

Google Chrome 13= Super Fast.

Seems lot faster than older Chrome's

BTW, Firefox 5 when it comes out will be very intersting

It's the latest stable release.

11 = Latest Stable
12 = Beta Channel
13 = Dev Channel

 

[Vyom]

Me using, Chromium 13 !

 

[thetechfreak]

13 = Dev Channel

I dont seem to be facing any problem with it.
Infact Chrome 12 troubled me more !


Btw, Firefox is fastest developing browser now.
Have a look at this link. Firefox 7 out already(obviously beta)

Firefox Nightly Builds

 

[krishnandu.sarkar]

Nope, then it's ok. I like to stay on Stable builds

 

[Vyom]

My Chromium updates itself automatically.. no control over it. Its not like I want control either
I like to live on the edge!

 

[Liverpool_fan]

There's no problem with the Dev Channel but it may suffer from regressions from time to also. Also it's updated way too much.
Personally I use the Beta Channel.

 

[Vyom]

How do you select, just a particular "Channel"?

 

[thetechfreak]

You cant. Google only upgrades you to latest stable version.

unless you do manual update.

In line with the topic i'd pick Chrome. My main reason being you don't really have to install plug ins like you do on firefox and the other browsers.

Anyways am starting to lose my love for Firefox, have been using it for at least 4 years now. And seeing the benchmark result up there, off to download chrome 13 i go!!! Surprised that Opera is faster than Firefox

 

[dreatica]

But the screenshot posted above are taken from the benchmark website, cant you post your own browser results please.

I just downloaded the 12 beta version and my results were less thn 3000.

I am currently using all the 3 firefox versions: 4.0.1, 5 beta and 6 alpha. Haven't seen much difference as far as browsing experience and stability go. Will run peacekeeper and report back if there are any differences in the scores.

 

[skeletor]

No use of comparing browsers with synthetic benchmarks. All the names mentioned above in the poll are fast enough. It's time to compare these browsers according to their usability now.

 

[doomgiver]

what in the world happened to firefox?

 

[Liverpool_fan]

How do you select, just a particular "Channel"?

I use Ubuntu and use the Chromium Beta Channel PPA.

 

[Vyom]

That sounded Greek to me, maybe since I havn't use Linux yet.

Did you mean, "alpha" instead of "beta"? Because AFAIK, there is no Firefox 7 beta released as of now. Neither I could find it here, and nor my Aurora got updated to beta. Its Firefox 7 alpha 1 as of now.


On browser benchmarks:
I have said it before as well. I just wonder when people starts talking about page load difference in milliseconds / microseconds. Do you really notice that difference? Do you? Really? :S
