Safari & Mavericks, Snappy!

[twistedtom]

I just updated to Mavericks, and the first thing I have done is to go on line, wow Safari is way faster, even on my satellite broadband.

Yep. Bang, zoom. I have a hard-wired Ethernet connection to a FiOS line.... Holy crow!

[ChrisByrd]

Yes, I'm finding the same, Safari on steroids!

I am hard wired also Jim, but uplink via out of space. We just got fiber in my hood so when my contract is up I am going to it.

I've had UVerse for a couple of years now and it blows DSL and, of course, cable, out of the water. I was on 18mbs service but dropped it down to 12 as I wasn't transferring that much stuff this month. As soon as I did that and logged into my ATT acct. it offered me a free upgrade to 18mbs for the next year at the 12mbs price. Go reconfigure!

Yeah, it's becoming my favorite browser (finally). I never got around to Chrome after having to re-install OS X 10.5 or 10.6 on my old G4 iMac after trying the alpha (pre-beta) version -- once bitten, twice shy. But I understand Safari shares much of the "fast rendering" and multi-processing engine and/or approach that Chrome uses. Firefox is left in the dust, but I still like Camino, and on Windows tend to prefer Opera if only for it download manager.
