I was happy when I heard there is a web browser that can beat Opera browsing speed. Safari was built for Mac OS X but now, the Apple tech guys have make it to available for Windows platforms.

Based from the graphs, Safari takes less time to load websites, javascripts and launch the application. The graphs really show that Safari is the best and the faster ever web browser in the World.

download_icon20070611.gifAfter I downloaded and ran it on my Windows XP SP2, and I think it still can’t beat Opera. For me, Opera is still the best browser and faster than Safari, Firefox and even IE.

When I was watching the demo video, I really impressed with the loading time and how fast it render all the files and images. Not sure what connection speed they were using for the demo, maybe 1Tbps. But from my opinion and experience using Safari on a 100Mbps connection, it still can’t beat Opera.

And because Safari is still in Beta stage, many Windows users facing many problems with Safari. Hopefully they will release the final version as soon as possible. Anyway, good luck Safari. ;)

    It has nice “eyecandy” stuff. I played with it for a few hours, but can’t say it’s any faster than IE or FF.

    Furthermore, a whole slew of exploits came out for Safari within hours of its release.

    Now, I know this is a beta, but Apple should’ve done better on the security front.

    Many people on a Mac are having problems with Safari, not just Windows users. In fact, a lot of Mac users know that Safari is a piece of crap to begin with.

    Naahh, dont think so.. An excellent article on the alpha release can be read at arstechnica.

    Current bugs
    1. TinyMCE probs
    2. Serious security hole (which related to the use of iframe)
    3. Unnecessary calls (which was originally use in Mac, later ported to windows)
    4. -not bugs, but simply i dont like the alien interface (the case when im using it under Window).

    :)

    Hi, I’m new around here.

    I’ve tried all the main browser including safari. Personally I think Firefox is the better browser and ocasionally, I used Opera to download ( a bit faster than firefox).

    In terms of Javascript speed, Safari does, in fact, beat Opera:

    Data to prove it.
