Ok as some of you may know when Google launched Chrome I made a thread about the Browser. I loved it, and still do. I actually ditched FF 3.0 for GC, but I will tell you that Firefox 3.1 Beta ROCKS!!! And is ABSOLUTELYPOSITIVELY the FASTEST browser available. Now it is beta and when you download it theres a fact sheet that explains known bugs. But it's awesome. You can download it here--> Firefox web browser | International versions: Get Firefox in your language
Now the browser doesn't come with it's fastest Javascript enabled. You must do this yourself. So heres what you do to make it kick as $--> In the tool bar type about:config then press enter.
then type javascript.options.jit.content into the filter. then Double-click on the preference listed to change the boolean setting from "false" to "true." After that close the window and you will now have the fastest browser available.
Ok heres a speed test using IE, FF 3.0, Chrome and FF 3.1--->
I then put both browsers, and some others, to the SunSpider JavaScript benchmark test. The results? Last place went to IE 7 with 59,694.3 milliseconds; Firefox 3.03 came in third with 11,249.1 milliseconds; Chrome came in second with a zippy 3,621.8 milliseconds, and Firefox 3.1 Beta 1 easily took first prize with 2,596.4 milliseconds.
You can see FF 3.1 is the fastest. I'm ready for Gold Code.
I would never use anything but Firefox. I used to develop web apps and FF is the only fully compliant browser that renders pages the way they're supposed to be.

I have to disagree. I believe GC renders correctly also.
