theAuthor, hello,
About me: I'm a web editor for news channel of [site address]
I read your web page, that was linked on someone's blog. That page is
http://www.howtocreate.co.uk/browserSpeed.html
It let me get knowledges.
Thanks ,for your work ,first . But I want you to test three browsers :
MYIE2
Maxthon
GreenBrowser
Above three softwares can be chosed English as default UI , and the
cores are base IE .
The three softwares are used by millions of chinese people . So I want know
which is best ! Firefox is very hot , whether them better than firefox ?
This is not ADs for chinese software , because I used them everyday. Do you
test to open twenty pages once , when you used some browser ?
Hope you do some additive tests . Thank you , again .

denglong,
I am currently adding a few more browsers into the test results, including
Avant, Maxthon, iCab and w3m. I will upload the results when I get the
chance. As a quick summary, Avant and Maxthon are both slower than Internet
Explorer, but Avant is the faster of the two.
As for Firefox, I know it is not faster than IE, and personally I prefer
Opera, but if I had to choose between Firefox and an IE-based browser, I
would always choose Firefox, as it has far better security and standards
support than IE. IE and any browser that uses IE core is dangerous.
As for opening multiple windows simultaneously, one of the script tests
already does this.
