I had the same feeling when I first started using it. But after a few months it did eventually slow down. I also found that Chrome doesn't handle multiple tabs as well as Firefox. Yes, if one crashes, then it's just that one, but that really doesn't happen that often for me on Firefox. If I remember correctly, after spending a lot of time in one tab on Chrome, when you tried to return to another, it was blank and took a really long time to come back. Very annoying! And last thing, some sites weren't showing properly. So I went back to using Firefox. Keep in mind though I use bookmarks extensively so I don't know if that's what's slowing down both browsers. Besides that and the fact I always open up many tabs, I can't think of why it slowed down. I keep running virus and malware scans and nothing. Oh well, good luck!

Ok, there is a LOT I hate about it. It's too small and compact and harder to read. Or it's too big and sprawling and pages go off my screen! BUT, it is FAST. Blazingly fast. I finally gave it a try when I was helping a friend tune up her daughters netbook because it was slow, and I had to go to a website. I opened both Chrome and Firefox at the same time and Chrome zipped open and loaded it's page....Firefox.....draggggggged. Sometimes speed is good. I ESPECIALLY like to use chrome for Joomla backend admin. Even if I decide I can't stand the interface, I'll still keep it for that because it is much zippier. -- ---- Hudson Valley Sudbury School What GPL is for application users Our school is for students Help your children grow, change, and learn Let your child direct, control, amend Check out http://www.sudburyschool.org
