Hard tests on Google Chrome Tabs
Yet Google announced that its new Browser “Google Chrom”, after declaring it officially on the Google Blog.
I don’t wait and I goes and download it!
Google Chrome is really a cool browser, here’s some reasons:
- It’s ultra fast
- It seems to be intelligent and understand what you do and want to
- Tabs are extremely fast (as they handle new process)
- Support for developers (Javascript debugger)
I was really surprised, why Google Chrome tabs are fast and don’t slow down the PC or the browser? And even if it uses process, this should slow down the computer! So I made a very hard test for this Browser!!!
I opened different pages and links, tens of times, more than 1 hundred, yet many hundered… I was controlling the application with Windows Tasks manager.
The Cache jumped from 232 MB to
to more than 400 MB!!!
Isn’t that a lot of memory?
But we should never mind about this, as Chrome can open the tabs easily. But I heard, that each tab have a unique process! No, Google Chrome gathered some tabs to unique process and don’t assign a process for each one, ONLY if they are the same link, here’s an example.
Different URLs have different and unique processes.
However when it’s the same URL and you open many, Chrome is intelligent and don’t pass by!
It groups a number of tabs in the same process, cool no?
So did Google succeed in the Tab war with FireFox and IE.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO, I discovered this, when I open many windows, the nice folks who designed the browser, didn’t took care of arrows to navigate through the opened tabs. Hahaha, I can’t now select tabs I had opened, this is really stupid, Google launched the Browser without testing and trying, this is a very big issue, here’s the photo.
Do you see the “?”, ok at this point, the tabs are under the reduce and close buttons, how will I select them?
The question is for the Chrome Developers team and I hope the response in the next version.
