Chrome works pretty well for me and I use it across 3 Platforms. (Windows, Linux, Chrome OS/Chromebook) . I also have Firefox as well. The two big things to remember when it comes to Browser performance is one add-ons/ Plugins and two the condition of the underlying os and hardware. The more you ask a Browser to do the slower it gets and No matter how fast a Browser is the current state of your machine sets the bar on how responsive it. Sometimes a User's Windows profile can become corrupted and can slow the overall performance of all the software you are using. An easy way to troubleshoot your profile is to create a fresh account on your PC and try running your usual programs and see if there is a difference. Install add-ons as needed and guage performance.
If your PC has been in service for a number of years it may be time to wipe and reinstall. Preferably with a Real Windows OS disk instead of those factory images with all the Bloatware.

Chrome opens too many instances of itself and doesn't close even when you close it.
chrome is a spyware/virus magnet
Settings > Advanced Settings > In the "system" section, uncheck "Continue running background apps when Chrome is closed"
Firefox was using way too much RAM and kept crashing anytime I was on Facebook or BGOL. Between the videos on FB & porn gifs here, firefox was damn near having seizures. I'm on Chrome now
Chrome bloodkin over here.
Chrome will be butter as long as you keep your extension count low.
One thing I wish the would change is how many instances it runs for no gotdamn reason.

Remember when they actually used to sell Netscape Navigator in the store like it was MS office or something.
Opera is based on the Chromium project, it is just sending your browsing and search info to a Chinese consortium instead of to Google.
This thread was over two years ago, I'm back to using Chrome now.
addons & extensions cause a lot of problems....
Chrome is great for browser syncing across my various Win pc's and ios and Android.
But on my man pc at home with a recent clean install on a new hard drive, it comes to a crawl if i leave tabs open for extended periods.
This weekend I will do some testing because it doesn't happen on my Windows 7 box at work.
My coworker has 20 tabs open in Chrome at work and it doesn't slow it down.
