It's also not faster, if that is what you read in my comment: Chrome/ium and Firefox keep improving. And depending on what month and what benchmark, one will outperform the other. Slightly.
It could be anecdotal? For any of both browsers, though. E.g. some plugins/addons will slow down the browser significant. Or usage specific? Maybe one handles having 2000 tabs open better than the other? Or page-specific?
- wooque 4y ago>Where do you get this? By visiting sites I visit often/everyday in both Brave and Firefox and comparing DomContentLoaded/Load/Finish timings in Developer Tools. Brave (but also Chromium in the past when I used it) is consistently faster. Not much, but I noticed even before I measured, I did it to check if my feeling is wrong, and it isn't.
- berkes 4y agoTo be clear: I'm not saying your feeling is wrong. But this is the definition of "anecdotal". I can see all sorts of biases luring in your methodology. And the body is way too small to have any statistic meaning. Again: performance, measured or perceived, may be bad for you. But that is completely different from "Firefox is slower than Chrome". You cannot make such a statement based on measurements on a few websites where Firefox appeared slow to you.
