When was the last time you checked/researched whether or not chrome is faster?
- ktjfi 8y agoA few weeks ago. Performance of Chrome is consistent: always snappy. Firefox on the other hand will turn laggy from time to time, especially when opening or closing tabs, when it sometimes freezes noticeably. It is also slower when doing DOM manipulations, and their developer tools are simply crap (MUCH slower, and with fewer features). But if they want to jerk off looking at how they reign in their synthetic benchmarks, who am I to disagree?
- jacquesm 8y agoMy 'synthetic benchmark' right now is FF with a few hundred tabs open in front of me. It works like a charm.
- pbhjpbhj 8y agoWhat do you have, like 32G of RAM, 16 cores, app running from an SSD, Gb network, etc.. :oP
- jerryzh 8y agoWhile actually many versions before, like 58 or some, Firefox has released a impressive update that brought a entirely new way to play many tabs. Their experiment is that they can open over a thousand tabs in several seconds.
- ubercow13 8y agoI remember reading [0] the opposite on here, though I don't know myself if it's true. Anecdotally I get the tab opening/closing lag often in Chrome, but not Firefox [0] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18654540 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18654540
