Safari 3.1 is fast … but so is Firefox 3.0 Beta 4

Zdnet writes:

"A little over a week ago I took a look at Firefox 3.0 Beta 4 and I benchmarked this latest release against the current browser lineup. Yesterday Apple released Safari 3.1 so the browser landscape has now changed. It's time to see how Apple's latest browser fits into the big picture.

Apple makes some bold claims relating to Safari. Have a read of this:
"The fastest web browser on any platform, Safari loads pages up to 1.9 times faster than Internet Explorer 7 and up to 1.7 times faster than Firefox 2."

I'm no tech expert, but doesn't the internet connection of the user determine how fast you go? I switch from FF to IE on occasions, I never really notice a difference. I need to check out Safari for PC.

speed matter for downloads. not so much for browsing.

You can have a terabit connection but if the browser can handle it you will not see much of improvements.

For example the PSP browser. It's a light version made for cellphones and even with wifi it doesn't perform fast.

Man, am using Safari and Firefox right now and I love em both. I just installed safari and is a lot like firefox so no complains here from me.

PR0NE6304d ago

heck it takes so long to load N4G from safari try for yourself, but firefox is amazing, and now with the memory consumption reductions that are being made in firefox 3(beta), ff will easily beat the hell out of any browser...

Firefox 3 may win in the long run, but it's pretty undeniable the tests show Safari wins, if only by a hair.

thewhoopimen6304d ago

Why don't you try Safari 3.1 before you mouth off. God I can't believe there are browser fanbois too.

travis bundercup6304d ago

firefox > all, safari is slow and laggy, and lacks all support.

mighty_douche6304d ago

Beta 4 has been great so far. Ooooh and it's so much lighter on memory than it used to be :)

I appreciate this way of doing business. I may even buy Lies of P now because of it. Where your money goes it's literally the only leverage we have as consumers to make a difference in an industry we all have an opinion about. Withholding it or spending it in the right places is about all we can do.

This is fire. Just like the game. I haven't gotten the dlc yet, but im really thinking about it. I just thought it ended great, I really want to see what they do with Dorothy. Will you fight the Tinman, Scarecrow, Cowardly Lion, the Wicked Witch and Wizard of Oz? Maybe Toto's with us, that'd be fire.
