swiftfox?

well, i wasn`t sure which forum to post this question in, but this one seemed the most relevant, to me at least

i was just wondering if anyone here is using swiftox rather than firefox, just found out about that one 10 minutes ago. wondering what the pro`s and cons are from people who actually use it. the reading i got out of their site doesnt seem to informative, to me at least


this is a signature

Re: swiftfox?

The biggest advantage to it is that it's built (compiled) for your specific CPU architecture, so in theory it should be faster. However, i've run Gentoo with march set to my exact CPU class and it felt no faster than Arch, so the effects are probably quite limited. Also, swiftfox changes some of the branding and artwork.
