![]() ![]() Meanwhile, Paul Wallbank is full of fear: But it's influence will live on - it's the design template for browsers of the future. It's not clear whether Chrome will ever catch up to Internet Explorer and Firefox in market share. Clearly, both Microsoft and Mozilla agree. There really aren't that many browser features you need to see, as long as you can. With that simple, stripped-down interface, Web content is front and center. With the recent releases of Internet Explorer 9 and Firefox 4, the "Chrome-zation" of the browser world is nearly complete. Preston Gralla considers influence in design : my PC starts swapping to the hard drive making it a real dog. the process goes from using 500MB to 1.6GB of RAM. Though the one drawback of Firefox is slow memory leak so. Chrome has to duplicate the code across each process. Firefox on the other hand uses a single process. Chrome uses more memory since it uses separate processes for each tab. switch to Chrome, but I keep 40 Firefox tabs open all the time. It appears Tom Keating doesn't understand virtual memory too well: ET Sunday, Mozilla's real-time scoreboard claimed that over 35 million copies of Firefox 4 had been downloaded since Tuesday. ![]() Firefox 4 also runs on Mac OS X and Linux. XP currently accounts for more than 61% of all copies of Windows in use. The advantage also goes to Firefox 4 because it runs on Windows XP, the 10-year-old operating system that IE9 has left behind. when that browser was downloaded more than 8 million times within 24 hours. broke the record established by Firefox 3.0. In the 24 hours from early Wednesday to early Thursday, users downloaded 8.75 million copies of. Perhaps Mozilla has a self-esteem complex about the fact that Firefox 4 fell below the 8 million mark set by Firefox 3? IE9 had 12.3 million downloads and beats Firefox 4's 10.1 million. there were roughly 10 million downloads of the IE9 release candidate, so. Using the "new math" where we count RC downloads in addition to the actual 24-hour count. but Mozilla is claiming 10.1 million by throwing in the RC downloads as well. Firefox 4 was downloaded 7.1 million times. the battle was perhaps much closer than sensational news headlines might suggest. had millions of downloads on its inaugural launch day. Tony Bradley scratches his head at the download stats: such as the user interface, the availability of extensions, security features, and that most underrated quality. ![]() When choosing a browser, most people put more emphasis on qualities. Not surprising, as development teams obviously base their results on benchmark tests that they approve of and have control over. It's also hard to imagine that the IE development team isn't already working on making the browser better.īoth Firefox and Chrome had the best result on in-house tests, with Chrome having a great result with V8v6 and Firefox with Kraken. Also expect Chrome's boot time and memory performance to improve. to perform much better on the JSGamebench test. Chrome, however, is absolutely killing it on Google's V8 benchmark. Firefox 4 is the winner this time around. JavaScript rendering, Firefox 4 HTML5 processing, boot time, and memory usage. Though the competition is extremely close in. considered JavaScript and HTML5 performance. ![]()
