Opera 10.50 !! See the test published in last month's digit. Chrome is a shade better but it is a resource hogger, while opera is very light.
Switched to Firefox, i'm hooked to it. The add-on feature is the diamond of this browser.

I have used all browsers and the fastest in my experience is IE 9 Platform preview.
Chrome and Opera beast Firefox's arse in terms of speed but the added functionality of Firefox's add ons are what keeps me to Firefox.
The one thing I hated about Chrome is there is no option to set a master password like in FF.
Opera somehow feels to clunky
As of now i am sticking to FF 3.6

He means a plugin which can switch images on/off quickly, like in Opera where clicking a button changes the modes between "Show images", "Cached images", "No images". It's very handy for us unfortunate people in India, with measly 2 GB limits in the day. 
Chrome has a plugin which only hides images, it doesn't stop images from getting downloaded.

I know about that command line switch, but it turns off all images (even cached ones), and you need to restart Chrome if you want to enable images on a particular site. It simply isn't as convenient as Opera, where you can do this on the fly. Even Firefox has an extension for achieving this functionality.

Firefox 3.6 with Ubuntu Lucid is pretty darn fast I have to say.
Well, true on that part but Firefox provides you with plethora of plug-ins for security & other enhancements.
Though it is quiet faster in rendering the page than FF but can't render all the web pages correctly, also I have noticed a strange behavior that 'opera' gets stuck with pages that are big in their content & server doesn't respond timely. Only choice you have is to reload the page. While with FF you can configure it to multiple attemps to download the page.
For above reasons I don't use 'Opera' regularly, I prefer FF over it.
Overall, I think FF is for jammed network, while 'Opera' is for fast rendering.

Opera has a wonderful built-in e-mail client too.. although, if you've a lot of mails, then Thunderbird is recommended.. Regarding Firefox, I'm eagerly waiting for Firefox 4.0 which will be based on the newly designed Mozilla 2.0 engine..
