It will take years for a Browser to mature just like FF before. Nice to meet fellow Indonesian blogger ^^ and I added you to my blogroll already @sandy-kun: It’s still in beta so Chrome is far from perfect and FF is still better in term of plugins as you said.

Nice to meet fellow Indonesian blogger ^^ and I added you to my blogroll already

Its all about scrolling speed and pluggin availability... Chrome has a slower speed in scrolling a page, if i'm not mistaken. Over all, Chrome really has a potential to be developed and stand with the browser now a day... May be one day, i'd like to use this browser.. but now, FF is enough for me.. :) Anyway, Indonesian are you?? me too.. ^^ If you mind, i want link xchange with you.. I've added yours.. ^^ <abbr><em>Sandykuns last blog post..<a href="http://sandy-kun.blogspot.com/2008/09/lets-sing-together.html" rel="nofollow">Let's Sing Together.. ^^</a></em></abbr> Well, dunno, but i still prefer FF than Chrome now.

Thx for the tip. I do agree with you that as long as Chrome is more responsive, memory usage does not really matter assuming you have plenty of memory. However, I am still curious what happen when an old computer uses chrome, Will it be as responsive as a more powerful computer? I looked at the link and Chrome uses a lot more of private memory than Firefox 3 unfortunately. Just to be sure, I did a test on my computer and I got the same result: http://tinyurl.com/63enxg. I also got random stalling too sometimes but haven't crashed my Chrome yet. I am going to try to see how it works on my old laptop p4 1.8 ghz with 256 MB RAM ^^ tonight. @nanu: Oh didn’t know that.

Also, I don't know what to make of my above analysis for memory usage anymore; to me, it's irrelevant because Chrome just feels more responsive than other browsers (except for some strange stalling at times). I admit I might be concerned about it now, had I less RAM, but it's weird how we get different numbers; here's what Chrome reports for memory usage for around 24 of the same URLs, per browser: http://bit.ly/3yMXFJ <abbr><em>nanus last blog post..<a href="http://betsuni.com/blog/2008/09/01/tech-geek-edc/" rel="nofollow">Tech Geek EDC</a></em></abbr> @superrats, Saku: Firefox can be made somewhat similar, using the Fission extension (it effectively makes the address bar take care of loading progress and links when hovering).
