Chrome currently. Considering I'm contemplating changing to one of these http://prism-break.org/ I may or may not be a chrome user for much longer.

I use Chrome, but I may switch to something else soon. I can't keep my window open for like 6+ hours or it will gradually get slower. And yes, I'm used to having my tabs open pretty much all day long =P

It never crashes for me though, unlike Firefox, and when I used Firefox it was slow as fuck. So if I'm going to switch, I'll probably check out Opera or such.

I used to use Chrome all the time, but sometimes websites/whatever are picky and won't work properly, so I switched to Firefox.

Haven't gone back since. <3

Firefox, but I also have chrome installed in case I have an issue I want to cross check, to ensure it isn't browser specific.

All cases not necessarily true anymore. Firefox 22 is rated overall better performance than every other browser, but not much ahead of chrome though.





And Firefox uses less memory, though this is mostly because of Chrome's design choice. Each Chrome tab has it's own seperate process. It's pretty much preference in this catagory.



I still prefer chrome though.

i'd rather use proprietary products than open source ones that aren't nearly as good. also, anybody complaining about web pages not loading properly in chrome, https://chrome.google.com/webstore/d...enadd?hl=en-US


synthetic benchmarks don't mean much, they never have; i'm talking about real-world usage and experience. from my experience, firefox memory usage just kept getting worse and worse as i used it more, where chrome has been more stable on that front. also from my experience, chrome has rendered web pages so much faster than firefox has on my hardware.

in regards to memory usage with multiple tabs open, that only matters if you have a lot of tabs open. firefox is less stable because it uses threads rather than processes, so i'd rather use more memory than have every tab crash when one of them crashes
