Internet Explorer 8: One of the fastest web browsers?
Microsoft has posted a video on the Internet Explorer 8 website which boasts about the speed of Internet Explorer. Shockingly, it proves to be 1/3 faster than Chrome and 3 times faster than Firefox ( all stable released versions ). They’ve done testing by using a stop watch. The video is indeed interesting to see. Although I would have loved to see a test of Facebook and other such websites, but I’m still a happy user of Internet Explorer on Windows 7 build 7057. The experience has raised up a whole new level since RC 1 of IE was released and I actually started using it again.
The source video isn’t embeddable for now, so you’ll have to click the image to go to the video. Personally, I’ve found Chrome to be the fastest, thanks to its JS crunching speed but remember that experiences may vary, since browsing speed depends on many different factors.

I have RC1 too but on Vista. Maybe it’s Windows 7 that makes the difference
You use IE or another browser?
I have IE RC1, Firefox and Chrome. Usually, I use Firefox
Man Chrome sucks!
The only thing good about it is it’s Javascript processing speed and that’s about it!
I would never use anything that is not Firefox! It`s extensions are something that i can`t imagine my daily surfing. And , i don`t use anything made by microsoft
. Besides, IE would be slower via wine
LOL, welcome to my blog dude.
