Moderators hazelnut Posted July 6, 2011 Author Moderators Share Posted July 6, 2011 We speak as we find Andavari. For me there is no doubt about the speed. At least you had a try Support contact https://support.ccleaner.com/s/contact-form?language=en_US&form=general or support@ccleaner.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
login123 Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 For me it was no faster than Firefox 5, so I don't know what everyone else is raving about and it was really slow on this forum. Also with all those blackhawk.exe processes running it was consuming gobs more RAM than Firefox 5 especially since I applied a tweak in Firefox to disable plugin-container. Well, I'll try anything as long as no reboot is required. Blackhawk ran faster than ie8 on all sites, but my experience is quite limited, never tried FF 5 nor any of the metallic browsers. Will take a peek at FF 5 if I can install it w/o rebooting. The CCleaner SLIM version is always released a bit after any new version; when it is it will be HERE :-) Pssssst: ... It isn't really a cloud. Its a bunch of big, giant servers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

login123 Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Well, here is a picture from Process explorer with all 3 browsers running 3 tabs each. Might be that FF 5 (installed) is using a bit more memory than Blackhawk, but I agree that it is really fast. Had not tried it before now. Poor old ie8 is left in the dust, both by the numbers and the subjective perception of speed.

It's sad though that some badly crafted sites still require IE8 to fully function. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corona Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Yeah, those would be government sites. The cutting edge of 1998. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
login123 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Has anyone tried it? ... Just revisited Blackhawk Browser. I was using Google maps, satellite view, and ie8 slowed to a crawl. Started thinking, this computer is faster than this, so I tried the same searches w/ Blackhawk. Much faster. Don't know much about rendering engines, using AJAX, etc., but Blackhawk is a bunch faster for redrawing those maps. Haven't tried to compare w/ Firefox, but much faster that ie8. Thanks, Hazel. :-) The CCleaner SLIM version is always released a bit after any new version; when it is it will be HERE :-) Pssssst: ... It isn't really a cloud. Its a bunch of big, giant servers.
