Browsers seem to be one of the few apps where they compete on speed. I remember Firefox was peeled out from the Mozilla browser and liking it because it was much faster and lighter.
Similar to the quote about Chrome in the article, speed came up quite a bit when Safari was developed almost a decade before Chrome.
> The number one goal for developing Safari was to create the fastest web browser on Mac OS X. When we were evaluating technologies over a year ago, KHTML and KJS stood out. [1]

That was the beginning of my policy, that policy that I pulled out of my hiney. Boy, talk about making yourself popular on your team doing that! [2] (on his no regressions policy)
