Probably not by much at all, but it's slightly noticeable. Also each tab is it's own individual process. If you load your task manager you'll see chrome.exe for every tab you have opened. That way if one crashes, your entire browser doesn't. And it decreases the load on java intense websites or applets so your system doesn't get too bogged down by having ONE process take up 239823495749573454 MB's. Pretty neat stuff for such an early version. Must have extensions though. MUST.

It's my OCD.. So somewhat disappointed that they don't have a clear-private-date-when-browser-closes type option like Firefox.

And it shows Outlook Webmail in that strange way Firefox does that makes it hard to use. On the other hand, it's definitely faster than what I've got, and I like the full window thing they have going on.

Reply Quote More Recent Posts Message Connection Block Invite	For those of you that like it, when you hit "Add Reply" or quote someone's post, do you see the full Yuku editor, with the proper bold/italics/links buttons, or are they missing? Quick reply works ok.

Posts: 4726 (09/03/08 3:15 PM) Registered user Reply Quote More Recent Posts Message Connection Block Invite	Nope, the buttons and full editor are missing. That's a known issue though, I've read about it on several "Chrome" reviews now. I LOVE the history feature - it breaks it down by time and presents the sites in a nice easy list. And the search feature WORKS. Oh and being able to make tabs their own window is amazing.
