Chrome 28 To Offer More Speed Improvements
This week's release of the Google Chrome 27 web-browser was made known by its faster load-times. While now in beta form, Chrome 28 will also bring greater speed improvements to Google's web-browser.
For providing even faster page-loads, the Chrome 28 beta lands in support for the WebKit-forked Blink threaded HTML parser. These speed improvements to the new HTML parser come via moving work off the main JavaScript thread and improved page-loading through pipelining. The DOM content should now load about 10% faster and the maximum stop time due to parsing should drop by about 40%.
The Chrome 28 Beta also has a fullscreen API on Chrome for Android, experimental new media features in Chrome for Android (WebGL, Web Audio, and WebRT as new options), and there's been some deprecated features.
