Passion for Speed: Google Chrome What a sudden surprise, it looks like the world has been waiting for Chrome! Obviously it renders a lot faster than any other browser. A few quotes from their new blog:

'Open source projects like Firefox and WebKit have led the way in defining the next generation of web technologies and standards'.

'Because of Chromium's unique multi-process architecture, the integration of the V8 JavaScript engine, and other factors, we've built a fairly significant port of WebKit on Windows, and are developing the same for Mac OS X and Linux'.

'The cornerstones of the V8 design are:

• Compilation of JavaScript source code directly into native machine code.
• An efficient memory management system resulting in fast object allocation and small garbage collection pauses.
• Introduction of hidden classes and inline caches that speed up property access and function call'

• Download Google Chrome
• Visit Chromium
• Read the Chromium Blog
