Chrome is fast compared to Firefox but i like firefox because of the wide variety of addons it offers.Chrome doesnt have all addons of firefox.Also For eg adblock works better on firefox than chrome.I do like chrome and use it but not as extensively as firefox.Forced to use IE on some net banking sites or else i would never use IE.
Also For eg adblock works better on firefox than chrome.
adblock on chrome block ads now. earlier it used to hide them.
Chrome extensions are becoming pretty powerful. Of course, Google is unlikely to make them as extensible as Firefox has let them... It just messes up the browsing experience for people who have no idea what they are doing installing all sort of apps.

Yes, thats true
Last week I disabled lots of addons on FF, this improved the speed & other performance.

Ok, I did some note of timing with browser experience. I have Dell laptop with Win 7 Ultimate.Browser I used - Internet Explorer (IE), Firefox (FF), Chrome (Chr) & Opera (Opr).To load browser - 1st time after laptop power on/2nd time after closing & opening browserIE - 5 sec/2.4 secFF - 30 sec/6.5 secChr - 25 sec/2.2 secOpr - 36 sec/2.5 secOpening sites ndtv.com & youtube.comIE - 5.5 sec\8.1 secFF - 5.2 sec\6.0 secChr - 3.7 sec\3.3 secOpr - 8.8 sec\5.1 secI first thought of clearing Temp Internet files & cookies before noting time, but then I didnt as I thought lets time as per daily usage.So overall Chrome performance is good compared to all.

I apologise for providing data with older version of Chrome. Earlier I was using ver 3.X.X which took 25 sec to start. However after upgrading to ver 6.X.X it still takes 15 sec to start Chrome after booting. 2nd start is quite faster in 1~2 sec.
