Firefox 3 Beta 2

Wenn das wahr ist und Firefox 3 wirklich schneller wird (was nach der ersten enttäuschenden Beta nicht zu vermuten war), dann gebe ich ihm evtl. doch mal wieder eine Chance:

[Improved in Beta 2!] Speed: Major architectural changes (such as the move to Cairo and a rewrite to how reflowing a page layout works) put foundations in place for major performance tuning which have resulted in speed increases in Beta 2, and will show further gains in future Beta releases.

[Improved in Beta 2!] Memory usage: Over 300 individual memory leaks have been plugged, and a new XPCOM cycle collector completely eliminates many more. Developers are continuing to work on optimizing memory use (by releasing cached objects more quickly) and reducing fragmentation. Beta 2 includes over 30 more memory leak fixes, and 11 improvements to our memory footprint.

Nachtrag: Firefox 3 Beta 2 ist richtig, richtig schnell!
