hm no. i am running usual opera but i disabled every single thing i dont need. i dont like huge browsers that display stuff i never asked for.

Like the address bar you need to get to websites?

i dont need it. i have google on speed dial. i do pretty much everything with speed dial.

Man, that's just weird :/

i dont see why i should use a browser with the most mouse gestures if i am going to use the senseless spacestealing bars to do it. i could just switch over to ff (which i sometimes even do) and have the same browser faster and with less displayerrors due to other code interpretation.

Opera's always been quite a bit faster than FF I've found, particularly with page rendering.
I've never used the mouse gestures, I've got a 9 button mouse, so just config the two side buttons to do back and forward.

pff brag more! i got a simple default hp mouse here. opera has been one of the slowest for me. been like that ff/ie9 > safari > opera > chrome > ie8

yeah i love mouse gestures, as soon as there is a plugin that covers all my beloved gestures i change to ff ^^

You've got it all backwards, it's :
chrome > opera > ff > safari > ie
In terms of speed anyway.

Who the hell uses Safari on a pc anyway? The font rendering is utter shit.

theoretical speed compared to real speed i see when i load pages is different ofc. oh and ie got fucking sweet since the 9 release.

Haven't tried 9 yet. Really should but I've got enough browsers installed on this comp.
