Why is Linux Chrome so fast?
,----[ Quote ]
| My three laptops have relatively comparable
| hardware and run Chrome on Windows, Mac,
| and Linux respectively. The Linux version
| of Chrome feels ridiculously faster than
| Windows and Mac. Do we understand why this
| is? Can we make Windows and Mac feel that
| fast too?
|
| General observations:
|
| 1) Scroll performance is extremely good.
| Even on Gmail, I can only get the mouse to
| lead the scroll bar by a dozen pixels. On
| Slashdot, it doesn't even look like I can
| do that.
|
| 2) Tab creation is very fast. Maybe the
| zygote is helping here? Can we pre-render
| the NTP on other platforms?
|
| 3) Startup time is faster than calculator.

Chrome Gains Speed, âBorrowedâ Features
,----[ Quote ]
| I know that the JavaScript engine of Opera
| is being overhauled; something there was
| not time to do before the release of
| version 10. When that is added, it will be
| interesting to see how Opera fares, as when
| looking now between Opera and Chrome, the
| major delta of performance seems firmly
| rooted in Java Script.

Google Chrome OS on Chinese netbook next month?
,----[ Quote ]
| But a Chinese manufacturer might be about to get a
| head-start next month by releasing a locally-
| manufactered netbook that comes with a pre-release
| version of Google Chrome OS installed, according to
| reports on a Chinese website that closely monitors
| the production lines of China's hundreds of tiny
| electrical firms.
|
| [...]
|
| (Note: the current Yeelong 8089 with Linux retails at
| 2899 RMB (that's US$425 or â290) in China, but sells
| in Europe for â335 at the moment. Not sure if any
| Chrome version would have the same price).
