Yep, Chrome is far better on Windows than OS X. So long as I was using OS X on my MBP I couldn't use Chrome and kept going back to FF - but since switching the machine to Win 7 I can't not use Chrome.
- notyourwork 16y agoI have not noticed any issues with Chrome on my pro. Am I missing out on performance?
- blinkingled 16y agoIt may be specific to my MBP model (17" Core i7) which has the weirdo combination of Intel and Nvidia GPUs that are switched flakily in software at OSX's whim and Chrome has been known to trip the GPU switching - http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=chrome+osx+gpu+switch http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8... . Scrolling was very jittery in general and page rendering/painting was also slower. Not like molasses slow but definitely not acceptable for a Core i7 machine. With Win 7 which uses only one GPU, the Nvidia one, it is very smooth and fast as I said - definitely wouldn't want to go back.
- notyourwork 16y agoI am running the 13" mbp and have not noticed anything out of the ordinary though now I am going to start using firefox for a few weeks and see how I feel.
