Release Notes
 
#3 ·
Just upgraded to this and it seems like they added a new backward/forward button functionality. According to the release notes, the forward button is automatically hidden if there are no pages in forward history. To fix this, I just added a separator between the right button and the address bar (right click empty area -> customize). Just thought I'd post this just in case some of you guys weren't liking the new hidden forward button.

Yeah, speed means nothing when you can't notice a difference without a benchmark. They are all sufficient in speed. The only reasons to even post or worry about those is to try to justify why you use one or another, or to try to sway someone else into using the one you do. Both are pointless. Use the one that has the UI and features/add-ons you like and be done with it. Most of those tests are heavily CPU dependent, so comparing one person's to another is pointless anyway. For reference, I got almost 750K on FF12a in the browser mark. Would I get more in Chrome? Probably. Would I notice any difference at all in every day things? 99% sure I wouldn't. I use FF because it has the things I like and I love the customization. For those who like to mess around with every little thing, FF is a must for a browser.

The benchmark was just a "for what its worth"..as stated by the "FWIW." Not meant to sway anyone either way. I could care less which browser anyone uses..I for one use Netscape Navigator 1.0.
