Google Chrome (BETA)

What CPU usage are we talking about here? Virtual Memory usage or the Task Manager instant "CPU usage" readout? Because in terms of VM, Chrome is lighter than FF.

I made some comparison and was quite surprised with the results.

browsers:
Firefox 3 + addons=none/as-is
Google Chrome+addons=none/as-is
Maxthon +addons=imagshack-sidebar,Flashget
IE7 + addons=IE7Pro,Flashget

all has same sites opened, 12 tabs,


firefox 3 = 86.7Mb
google chrome = 134Mb
Maxthon = 43.7Mb
Internet Explorer 7 = 32.9Mb

Minimized


firefox 3 = 86.Mb
google chrome = 134Mb
Maxthon = 18Mb
Internet Explorer 7 = 13.8Mb

btw IE7Pro plugin is 80% exact feature copy from Maxthon specialy on Tabs and tools area. and 10% from firefox on browsing speed and realtime spell check. but IE7Pro plugin is as unstable as firefox 2.

I'm also impressed with firefox 3, if I was using firefox 1-2, it would have reach more than 150mb.

not much changes on memory consumption after 15 minutes of standby. though maxthon tries to reach low as 16Mb from time to time.

Imo, developers have different ideas thinking what is the best. chrome developers obviously thinks separate tabs makes more stable browsing, because you can Isolate a particular tab when it hangs. however, Imo, they should concentrate that no any tab will hangup.

ewww... the one thing I really hate are programs bringing startups with them...



auto update should the least be called upon when opening the program, not at the OS Startup.

For me its relatively ok. But Firefox parin ako dahil sanay na ako sobra sa interface nya.

Still testing it.

I noted the following:

1. It's not compatible with my blog provider.

2. Some flaws in blogposts.
