Firefox 3 Beta 5 released

Post by ElTaco »

So you want rock solid performance, no memory leaks and less memory used then IE and Opera? Why don't you try FF 3. Beta 5 was just released. Here is the announcement on slashdot:
"Firefox 3 Beta 5 was released today. This last beta release sports performance-boosting improved connection parallelism. Not only has 'the memory leak' been fixed: Firefox now uses less memory than other browsers. This is not only according to Mozilla developers, but CyberNet and The Browser World as well. As for the Acid3 test, Firefox 3 Beta 5 scores only 71/100 compared to 75/100 for Safari 3.1 and 79/100 for the latest Opera 9.5 snapshot. The final release of Firefox 3 is expected in June."
