In this purely scientific exploration of speed, we get to see who the real speed demon is in the browser wars. Google Chrome beats out the mighty potato canon like it was nothing. Lightning doesn’t even stand a chance.

    I don’t really understand this fascination with browser speed — which must take a backseat to the speed of your internet connection, or the speed of the server serving the page, surely?

    I’d rather there were browser wars over how little memory the thing used. That would be cool. (Said the guy with 98 tabs open.)

    When I updgraded to Chrome on my old-ass PC from IE, it made a HUGE difference in browsing speed. Not just searching, but overall surfing.

    This coming from a Firefox (which I also like) user currently typing on a Mac.

    Canon
    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Not to be confused with Cannon.

    Yes but how much of your web surfing habits are sent to Google by a potato canon?

    Now if only my computer could deal with the absolutely memory sucking speed of Chrome, but it can’t. Fantastic video though, well done.
