Opera 10 Turbo Mode, Fastest Browser

Fast, yes, Opera 10 is really fast. I can’t comment much about it stability. I once was a big fan of Opera, back then it was Opera 1 and 2. I left Opera for Internet Explorer because Opera crashed too often.

Perhaps the biggest feature is the Turbo Mode, known as Opera Turbo. By enabling this feature, you’ll experience a faster surfing experience. How do Opera Turbo works? Instead of grabbing the data from a slower network, Opera reroute the data from the source to a central location and then feed it to the browser, making your surfing faster.

Opera Turbo uses compression technology that provides significant improvements in browsing speeds over limited-bandwidth connections, for example, when using a crowded Wi-Fi in a cafe or browsing through your mobile phone while commuting.

Download Apple Safari 4, The Fastest Browser For Windows

Safari 4 by Apple is now available. According to iBench it is the fastest browser in the market. Based on my own experience, it doesn’t feel any faster than my Firefox 3, neither am I experiencing a faster browsing speed over my Internet Explorer 7 or my Opera 9. In all honesty, the browsing speed feels the same, just like any other browser.

On the interface, there are some cosmetic changes, minor.

However, the biggest change is none other than the text rendering engine. Apple has finally decided to please Windows user knowing very well they are unable to gain any market share among Windows user because of the text rendering engine used in previous Safari. Read this post on the text rendering engine comparison between IE and Safari.

It is unlike for Safari to gain any new converts from Firefox and IE due to their way Safari handles font rendering. The way Apple does fonts is very different from the way Microsoft does fonts, and there seems to be little to no common ground.

Its sharper now, and easier on the eyes. I have to admit that the text rendering engine is one of the biggest reason why I decided not to use Safari. Download Safari 4 now.
