It is exactly the same with chrome. I used to love it until it ended up being a dog in performance. I honestly thought it was because I started using the dev builds - slow debug logging? BUT, I clear everything but saved passwords every month or so. It goes back to being snappy right away. You don't get those results even with a new install as it doesn't delete old data. I think the chrome team must have known this. In the clear history dialog it lets you clear only "last week", month, etc which is perfect. I wish they would automate that though.
