Normally I don't like modified browsers. With the "official" browser, I'll get the newest updates as fast as possible, so why should I change? Well, according to
Waterfox I will get a faster browser:
“Waterfox has one thing in mind: speed.”
But is this true? I've seen so many crappy modified browsers, so I've decided to give Waterfox a test.
The newest version of Firefox x64 is "13.0a1" and the newest version of Waterfox is "10.0". Futuremark's
Peacekeeper looks like a trustworthy benchmarker, so I gave it a try;
Waterfox 10.0 |
2144 (+/- 16) |
Nightly 13.0a1 |
2099 (+/- 14) |
(Results on my PC).
So Waterfox might actually be worth a try!
