All tests were done on fresh installs of the respective software. Chrome is still an early BETA, and very noticeably so, with various noticeable bugs.

Chrome has a pretty nice feel to it. It's very slow though. Kinda funny how it did better than Firefox.

Chrome is going very fast for me. Perhaps your internet absorbs?

I still wish I could install and try it. The Hauskaz Domain splash apparently has issues with Chrome, even though I'm led to believe it uses WebKit, which should work fine.
