Chrome 27, Firefox 22, IE10, And Opera Next, Benchmarked

Taken from Tom's Hardware

 

Well, folks, this brings us to the end of another installment of the Web Browser Grand Prix. We're about to tally up our eight categories of testing. But first, let's have a look at the performance and non-performance breakdown.

Performance Index

The data in the chart below is a geometric mean of all four performance-based categories: Wait Times, JavaScript/DOM, HTML5/CSS3, and Hardware Acceleration.

Firefox 22 pulls off an upset, replacing the long-time performance champion Google Chrome as the new speed king! Google doesn't lose by very much though. In fact, if we moved the decimal point and rounded, this would show up as a tie. Meanwhile, moving on to the next win-eligible browser, IE10 is far behind in third place, with less than half the performance score of Firefox 22 or Chrome 27. Opera 12 is in last place, lagging slightly behind IE10.

Opera Next technically lands the number-three spot with a score right below Chrome. Our performance index shows the browser to be nearly three times faster than its current version! In fact, the upcoming Chromium-based Norwegian Web browser only shows weakness in HTML5 and its native HWA.

Chrome with ad block plus, what more do you need?

that is like saying battlefield only needs shooting people with guns and doesn't need spectator mode, battlefield recorder, decent maps, proper PC UI etc etc.

chrome is shit....if are a power user and used opera for some time you could not go back to basic featureless browsers like chrome.

New opera 15 that came out yesterday is shit tho....looks like me and everyone else will be sticking with opera 12 until they sort there shit out.
