hey guys this is Austin and Stevie with my latest browser test comparing chrome 19 Firefox 13 Internet Explorer 9 opera 12 and Safari 5.1 before we begin let me go over how I test all five browsers were updated to the latest non-beta release tested on the same Windows 7 PC with a core i7 and sixteen-year bytes of RAM and each test was run multiple times with the results averaged to make everything as fair as possible to start we have the v8 benchmark which measures the JavaScript performance for sites such as Gmail as always chrome dominates here with Firefox coming in second in Opera Safari and Internet Explorer all considerably farther behind next up we have peacekeeper which is one of my favorite benchmarks as it covers most of the important aspects of a browser chrome wins again here with opera quite close and the other browsers like behind next we have the html5 test taking a look at how well each browser supports the latest web standards chrome opera Firefox and Safari all do very well here and handling most anything you'll come across today with Internet Explorer falling way behind Internet Explorer 10 is coming soon with much better html5 support however so this is likely the last time I include this benchmark we have a new test this time how long each browser takes to open from a cold start impressively Internet Explorer opens in less than a second and a half an opera and Firefox are nearly tied at two point two seconds piece Chrome and Safari lagged behind and is still reasonable three point three seconds one thing to keep in mind is that this test was run on a computer with an SSD so if you're still rockin an old-school hard drive the differences will be a lot larger lastly I test to see how much memory each browser eats up with five tabs open with popular sites such as Yahoo and Hulu impressively Safari continues to win here which is over 125 megabytes of RAM used less than chrome does with a single tab Firefox also does quite well Opera puts in a respectable showing and Internet Explorer and chrome fall quite far behind since doing my first browser test over three years ago chrome is one most and always done well this time is no different but it's not the only stellar choice Firefox boots quickly is fairly speedy and as well with memory opera is the best all-around browser with good performance everywhere and chrome remains the overall but it's held back a bit by its memory usage and start times I would happily use and recommend any of the three but the numbers don't lie as long as you have a modern computer Chrome is clearly the fastest browser out there if you enjoyed this video be sure to leave it a thumbs up and if you're interested in more videos like this be sure to subscribe
