Peaches Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Chrome buries Windows rivals in browser drag racegoogle's updated chrome 3.0 over twice as fast as Firefox, 30% faster than Safari. By Gregg Keizer September 21, 2009 Computerworld - Google's new Chrome 3.0 is the fastest of the top five Windows browsers, and beats every rival, including Apple's Safari, by comfortable margins, benchmark tests show. Both Chrome and Safari use the open-source WebKit browser engine. According to tests run by Computerworld, Chrome 3.0, which Google launched last week, is the fastest production version of the top five Windows browsers. Chrome renders JavaScript more than nine times faster than Microsoft's Internet Explorer 8 (IE8), is over five times faster than Opera Software's Opera 10, two-and-a-half times faster than Firefox 3.5 and 30% faster than Safari 4.0. Last week, Chrome's engineering director boasted of his browser's speed, claiming that the 3.0 update was 25% faster at rendering JavaScript than its predecessor, Chrome 2.0, and 150% faster than the original version, which debuted in September 2008.
