The speed of downloading web pages is very important for comfortable surfing the net. This provided the conditions for the start of the race among developers involved in the creation of web browsers for the title of "fastest Internet browser." The main ones for Russian-speaking users with the installed Windows system, which makes sense to consider, are the following:
1) Internet Explorer, the brainchild of Microsoft, by default included in all versions of Windows.
2) Opera is a popular product just in the territory occupied by the Russian-speaking population.
3) Mazila Firefox.
4) Young, but very popular Google Chrome.
Each of these browsers has its own advantages. It should be noted that before the release of Internet Explorer 9.0, this browser was not at all of any interest, significantly lagging behind competitors. However, a new approach was implemented in the new version, which allows the brainchild of Bill Gates to take its rightful place today. At the moment, a new version 10.0 has been released, which should compete for the title of "fastest browser in the world."
The opera is popular for its convenience and the introduction of many innovations, which ensured its love for users. However, this browser has security holes and does not stand out at a particular speed, which does not allow it to participate in the competitive race at the present stage.
Mazila Firefox has long been a leader among Internet browsers. It provided fast page loading, which made it possible to perceive it as the fastest browser. However, it has its own weaknesses, the root of which lies in the use of plugins. They are used for the convenience of work, creating additional comfort. Being installed in large numbers, they lead to a serious load on the system. This makes Mazil very slow and demanding on computer resources, especially on the indicator of RAM.
The browser that currently took the championship branch is Google Chrome, created by the developers of the popular search engine. The speed and ease of operation, combined with great functionality, allowed it to become very popular among Internet users in a short time. Despite some relativity of the calculations, we can safely say that at the moment Google Chrome is the fastest browser.
The browser from Google was developed on the basis of the open engine WebKit (WebKit). Its popularity provoked the appearance of clones, it should be noted that many of them are very successful. For Russian-speaking users, projects from Yandex, Mile.ru, a browser that is called very simply - the Internet, and also KulNovo (CoolNovo), which implements mouse control, which can be very convenient for users who are used to Opera, but who want get at your disposal the fastest browser.
Not all clones are listed here, in fact, there are many more. The main reason for their occurrence is user dissatisfaction with Google’s policy , which is trying to track user actions through its software products. In addition, the engine is periodically updated, which runs the fastest browser in the world, and Chrome is in no hurry to update, first passing a series of tests. But it is worth noting that the release of updates does not particularly affect the speed of work.
