Phoronix: Chrome 53 Should Be Blazing Fast

Chrome 52 Beta may have just been released, but I'm already looking forward to Chrome 53 for very significant performance improvements!..

The Google logo should render now 47% faster. I stopped caring about "fast browsers" years ago, because they brag about performance improvements literally every release, yet pretty much never do I see any actual difference.

I encourage you to take a look at a "not fast" browser. You'll know the difference if you look back a couple years.

I wonder if this work was influenced by them seeing the results of Servo's experimental WebRender.

If it doesn't support wayland and va-api, it still isn't "blazing fast".

So mainly fast if using a Mac?

Ha ha.
If it doesn't support Vulkan GPU rendering and multiprocess it can not be "blazing fast".

the problem is that web sites are bloating faster than the browsers are improving. search boxes for sites like walmart, amazon, ebay all lag and drop characters on me. too much poor javascript...

And they don't even use rust. So it cannot be that fast.

I'm also very excited. Since we've had "much faster" browsers which each version iteration, we are now close to creating a spacetime singularity. Once we are there we will have webpages rendered within a finite amount of euclidean time - including a gazillion ads. Exciting times indeed.
