A Mozilla intern has figured out a method to get Firefox launch quicker – or at least look like it’s opening faster. In a blog post, interface designer John Wayne Hill explained how Chrome, even though just a little faster than Firefox at starting, feels a lot quicker. After analyzing videos of the startup procedure for both applications, Hill establish a essential diversity in the way each one launches that makes Chrome feel snappier.
Apparently, once Firefox is opened it draws the window, after that the browser interface, and at last the homepage. Chrome on the other hand, draws the window along with browser interface simultaneously, and after that it loads the website. In Hill’s words, ‘Firefox feels extremely sequential in its loading, while Chrome seems to do the whole thing at once.’
Additionally, Hill says that Chrome places a smaller amount of a visual importance on the webpage loading icon, while Firefox’s is in plain sight – not to mention that Chrome’s icon animation rotates faster. Chrome additionally hides website titles until a page is generally loaded, while Firefox shows the title more swiftly making it appear like users have to wait longer.
All of these effects apparently add up and cause the illusion that Chrome is much faster, and Hill says Firefox can be tweaked similarly. Head over to the full blog post for additional information, together with a few data graphs illustrating the speed differences involving Firefox and Chrome.

I don’t think google chrome is faster than firefox. I think firefox is faster than chrome, I have used both firefox and chrome but it seems to me that firefox is much better than chrome.
I just feel like there is less fuss when it comes to it, actually. But it’s all a matter of preference.
