Google bringing new browser to the party

Google have announced news of Chrome, a new open source Webkit-based browser. The central premise is that it has been designed from the ground-up to work efficiently with the demanding web applications of today’s web. In particular, it features a JavaScript engine called V8 which can utilise multiple processes, as opposed to the single-process engines that power Firefox and Safari.

As Google are emphasising performance, it will be interesting to compare their efforts with Safari’s new SquirrelFish JavaScript engine.
