New Pale Moon Browser
Sunday, April 18, 2010 by G3mpi3 | Discussion: Internet
I figured I would try to get some feedback here at WC. My personal opinion, I think it is indeed faster. According to Lifehacker.com:
"Windows: If you're a devotee of Firefox's add-ons and features but would like just a tad more operation speed, Pale Moon might be perfect, at least for a trial run. The custom and extension-compatible Firefox build seems just a bit snappier.
It's a relative measurement, of course, to note that Pale Moon, built and compiled specifically for Windows operation, tests out 25 percent ahead of Firefox in certain SunSpider rendering and scripting tests. As we've noted in our browser speed tests, browser testing suites can be subjective, and don't always translate to real-world experience. Then again, using Pale Moon for the better part of a morning, I could guess at feeling pages like Gawker.com and Slashdot loading a tad faster than in Firefox, which I kept open for side-by-side testing. Pale Moon should work with most of your extensions, too, and if you install it in a non-portable fashion, it picks up your existing Firefox profile and runs with it.
Pale Moon is a free download for Windows systems only."Link: http://www.palemoon.org/

It's definitely worth a try.

I've been using it for a week or so. No problems and seems a tad quicker.

Faster than greased lightning, G3mpi3. Longest time for a site to open? Yep: WC.
