TeeJay3800 Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 That test is bunk. Opera 10 Beta has been out for several weeks longer than Firefox 3.5, yet they used Opera 10 Alpha for their comparison tests. I certainly wouldn't put much weight on a test done by an organization using badly outdated software.

abu aufa Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 http://www.neowin.net/news/main/09/07/01/f...-fast-as-chrome at least, FF 3.5 faster than 2.0 and more secure. IMHO, FF = Chrome to load pages.But still ... FF is my top browser. Tip for FF 3.5 from Lunarsoft Forum see and feel the difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Andavari Posted July 2, 2009 Moderators Share Posted July 2, 2009 Chrome still has issues loading certain sites, in particular a bank site we use doesn't work correctly in Chrome and its clones which is why I removed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A slight version difference shouldn't really matter. http://www.last.fm/user/Matt714 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That may be true, but how is the test valid if some tests are done using final version software, but others are done using ALPHA software? It's well known that alpha software is in a very early stage of development, and that beta and final versions almost always offer improved performance and stability. So to compare Opera 10 ALPHA to Firefox 3.5 FINAL is very unfair. Dell Latitude D600 Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit SP1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalj Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 http://www.neowin.net/news/main/09/07/01/f...-fast-as-chrome omg, I uninstalled Firefox because I was feeling that Safari was loading faster. I guess I was right. + Safari uses 2 times less memory than FF and others. + I miss the bookmarks showing up in the address bar.

Aethec Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Using V8 Benchmark suite to compare Chrome, Safari and others browsers is really stupid. It is made by Google and Apple (and other companies) And it only tests JavaScript... Piriform French translator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
