First impression: Browser: Google Chrome 10: High speeds and uniform design

Google unifies the menu of your browser: Go to the options that open up as a separate tab, rather than being an additional window. Via buttons on the left to display a submenu of privacy or advanced options. The hotline is available on request on its own addresses, such as the initial setting. Since you were able to get the graphics card in your PC in a roundabout way to help, work, version 9, the more comfortable.

For certain calculations of page content, the browser uses the future not only in the performance of your, but also takes on additional power for the GPU (raphics rocessing nit) back. Depending on the integrated graphics chip you can see animations and elaborate websites clear liquid. New in the beta version of Chrome 10: Running HD video in the browser, the graphics card will jump into the breach, relieving the main processor - according to Google by up to 80 percent.

The prior version must be spring: In the "SunSpider" benchmark most other browsers Chrome 10 refer to the back seat, even the predecessor to Google's faster - perhaps this slowdown due to the beta status. But the test coincides with the "V8 Suite" is positive, the beta obtained here two to three times as good results as the competition.

The reason: Google has optimized the appropriate calculations for JavaScript engine that improvements in the name of "Crankshaft". The more demanding the calculations on the website, the more benefits Chrome 10 compared to other browsers. With version 10 of the Chrome developers pay attention to details: the options are open as well as downloads of the browser, bookmarks, and extensions as a separate tab.

Who uses his Google profile for comparison between different computers, protects certain future content with additional passwords. When Chrome speed are 10 does not clear message: while the browser is weakening the SunSpider test, but the "Crankshaft" improvements provide for a rapid increase in the tempo-V8 Suite.

In the practical test, Chrome displays usual fast and stable - yet it is a preliminary version, you should not use in everyday life!
