hey guys this is Austin and today I'm here with my latest browser test comparing chrome 17 Firefox 11 opera 11 61 and Safari 5.1 for this test I changed my method by adding a very popular request a Mac all tests were run on both a core i7 desktop as well as the core i5 MacBook Air this isn't useful for comparing OS 10 versus windows cores but it will help you choose which is the best browser for your OS to start with we have the v8 benchmark which measures JavaScript performance for sites such as Gmail on Windows chrome dominates as always with Firefox and opera behind over on OS 10 Crump still wins out over Safari doesn't much better here not only beating the other two browsers but also being better than Safari on Windows now bad considering the rest of the browsers are roughly half as fast on the macbook air next we have one of my favorite overall benchmarks peacekeeper which has been redesigned since my last browser test on Windows chrome wins out over opera which typically takes this test and over on OS 10 Chrome contains twin out over both Safari and opera as peacekeeper not only test speed but also compatibility with various web standards winning gear means a lot continuing on we have the particle acceleration test which focuses on how well each browser takes advantage of hardware acceleration for Windows Firefox 11 gets a perfect 60 frames per second with chrome also getting a respectable score on OS 10 it flips as Safari is the one with the perfect score with the other three browsers know what close as you can see this is another example of just how much better Safari is on Mac compared to Windows next up we have the html5 test this has been a staple of my browser tests for quite a while and it simply measures how well each browser adheres to the latest web standards chrome ekes out a victory here however all four browsers clear the test with a score of over 300 which gets too big thumbs up from me lastly we have memory usage here I let up both of the browser's with five tabs consisting of popular sites such as Hulu on Windows both Firefox and Safari I did very well with opera not too far off in chrome being the clear loser on OS 10 I had some issues with the consistency of my results for both Firefox and Chrome but impressively Safari uses up just over 100 megabytes of RAM making it the best browser for memory usage I've ever tested with two different noses there are two different stories here on Windows Chrome and Firefox from my top picks chrome is still the fastest browser speed wise polar Firefox has better hardware acceleration intends to take up less memory which is important on PCs with less power on OS 10 Chrome remains great but Safari is a very strong choice with close to chrome levels of performance combined with excellent memory usage and hardware acceleration if you enjoyed be sure to leave this video a thumbs up and if you're interested in more videos like this be sure to subscribe
