I've got a spare laptop that I use for web browsing. Since it only has 4GB RAM, OpenBSD seemed a good fit for it.
However Chrome is extremely slow. I've increased system resource limits as mentioned in the email list archives, but that didn't resolve the issue. If I turn off video acceleration blacklisting in Chrome, videos play faster but starting the browser takes ages and sometimes fails entirely. Regardless, there is still lots of lag when loading pages. Am I running into system memory limits ("minimum 8GB RAM to surf the web"? what is the world coming to?) or is another issue likely the cause?
