Quillz Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 I'm posting now before this turns into another version numbering scheme debate. Using it, like it. I actually find it very stable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bjoswald Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 Another day, another jump. Maybe tomorrow they'll actually bump the "stable" and "beta" channels up to 8 before skipping straight up to 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Littlemutt Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 finally print preview in about:flags hardware acceleration fully enabled. On IE FishTank Chrome seems to have to lost ground - previous builds 8.xx.xx.xx were running at 30fps with default fish (Firefox 4.0 dev/trunk=59fps) - while the 9.xx.xxx.x is at 23fps... IE Speedreading test is only running at 6pfs - So perhaps I have something set wrong ? I have this in the properties: J:\Users\JJ1\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe --enable-accelerated-compositing --enable-gpu-plugin --enable-gpu-rendering --enable-accelerated-2d-canvas --enable-video-layering --enable-fastback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subject Delta Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 The latest Chromium trunk builds are seriously impressive. Just ran through peacekeeper, and received a score of 10,259 up by nearly 900 points on what I got with Chromium 8.x, the highest peacekeeper score I have ever achieved on my hardware, and the highest leap I have seen from one browser version to another, with the exception of the leap from IE8 to IE9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drunkgoat Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 Maybe I'll give Chrome 9 a chance now, since it's more mature than IE8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowRanger13 Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Got a 207.2ms +/- 0.8% with sunspider. I think with chrome version 7 it was 390~ on my computer so quite an improvement... Javascript intense webpages feel quicker then ever, 3d rendering works great on all the tech demos. Any sites out there that actually use some of this stuff yet?
