I must say i was a Chrome user for the past years and changed back to Firefox for approx. 6 months now. Aurora and Stable.
But after thinking that i can cope with a little bit of sluggishness and slowness it's just too much of a difference in responsiveness overall. Chrome starts much faster, tabs open much faster, tab switching is faster.
In Chrome it is _instant_. In Firefox it is fast but it's noticeable to the point where it distracts from fast keypresses. Sometimes i am pressing keys faster then Firefox is ready to accept and Firefox misses keys.
Yes, firefox is fast but it's not yet right where Chrome is.
Today, i tested the experimental features but in the end, i switched back to Chrome.
I just hope Servo will be great and wait. Until then, i am running Chrome again.
P.S.: I've used FF and Chrome on Windows and Linux, and on both OS, Chrome beats Firefox in UI responsiveness.
