First off, I know there's already a couple of topics about browsers, but no benchmarks or that sort of thing, I made this post on another forum and decided to post here as well.
Also as one more note, I know speedtests aren't exactly relevant but I put them there anyway as they are a statistic.
Without further ado I bring to you:
The Big Beta Browser Benchmark Bonanza
So, Recently I've been experimenting with many different browsers
and wondered for myself exactly which one was the best, and how they all compared.
So I bring to you all, my results of equal testing between these top competitors:
