Yesterday, in a Chromium blog post, Google announced that Chrome has achieved “the highest score ever” in the Speedometer 3 benchmarking assessment, making it one of the fastest browsers in the world.
Thanks to a number of optimizations, the Chrome web browser has become 10 percent faster than it was back in August 2024, which results in “better browser experiences” and “deeper enjoyment of what the web has to offer.” Of course, even with this progress, there’s still plenty of room for further improvement in Chrome’s performance.
Speedometer 3 is a benchmark that measures performance across various web browser use cases, including HTML parsing, JavaScript and JSON processing, DOM manipulations, CSS layout calculations, and pixel rendering. In theory, a higher score should correlate to a better user experience while navigating the web.
Chrome has been heavily criticized over the years for feature creep, slowdowns, and taking up too many system resources, so these gains are welcome. However, it should be noted that there are other factors to consider when choosing a web browser, including features, security, privacy, etc. Even if a browser that scores well on Speedometer 3, it may not be the best browser for you.
