Awesome, was looking forward to this since I heard about the speed increases. Seems really nice so far (Y)

[iuerg87yerg879e0rg9erugjer]

looking good chrome 10.0

[Littlemutt]

Just updated, and none of the IE speed tests work -

fish tank

speed reading

neither work..

EDIT: works if I turn off 2D Canvas option but IE Fish-tank is slow compared to latest Minefield.

i havent noticed any speed improvements in chrome 10. its about the same as chrome 8 and 9 for me.

[BryanChung]

I had Error 7 too even after reboot, so I just reinstall. :)

Odd, Chrome 10 feels so much more snappier at loading sites for me. It's clearly noticeable.

Does this Dev-channel version crash for anyone else after closing the browser?

[Stefan Lazic]

Yes - it crashes for me -

when i click the x to close the browser its always says "chrome crashes restore now"

i find that going to the settings menu and clicking exit stops this

Yes , on Windows and Mac OS too

[Jamushroom Veteran]

I hope that they'll be fixing it soon.

[bangbang023 Veteran]

Doesn't for me. Maybe a common extension you guys are using and I'm not?

[Jamushroom Veteran]

I'm using these:

• Speed Dial
  
• Hide Twitter Guff
  
• Google Chrome to Phone Extention
