I have to say that this browser is AMAZING!
I have finally found a browser that is compiled for 64-bit specifically and can run my Mozilla Firefox extensions -- because it's built on Mozilla's source code, only heavily optimized for modern processors! I can run NoScript to keep my browser and computer secure, while surfing the web at lightning speeds! It let's me run 64-bit plugins like Adobe Flash (I know, I know, HTML5 is the way to go, Flash is insecure and should be banished, although I still think it has good uses for the web. I don't mean to be off-topic, back on track now :lol:) and 64-bit Java applets. I also don't mean for this to be a pitch or advertisement, and I could of made this post more professional. Nevertheless I am just so excited I found this browser. :eusa_dance:
I have tested this browser against Internet Explorer 9 (64-bit) and found that it is at least FOUR times faster in JavaScript tests. http://dromaeo.com/?recommended
I have yet to test it in other benchmarks including DOM and CSS.
This has to be the greatest browser. Looking to make donations to the project in the future. :greenclp:
Review the benchmarks at the bottom of this page. Waterfox is more update to date, so I will go with it. Thanks, Gunner for the suggestion.

看起来不错， :greenclp:

Glad I could help at least one person. :P
Hutch, surely you will have a look at it since you run a 64-bit computer. Unless, you are an IE fanboy. :lol:

There are so many FireFox variants around.
WaterFox is only 64bit, you might want to try it: http://waterfoxproject.org/

:biggrin:

I wonder why anyone would think I need to find things to do, trust me I have enough to do. :P

Gunner,
Thank you for that link. I found some benchmarks (https://www.networkworld.com/news/2012/021312-firefox-faceoff-255880.html?page=1 (https://www.networkworld.com/news/2012/021312-firefox-faceoff-255880.html?page=1)), which claim Waterfox as the fastest, by a small margin, but still fastest.

I am back after benchmarking both Pale Moon (x64) and Waterfox (x64) and I have come to the conclusion that Waterfox is faster.
Setup: Both browsers had all add-ons disabled, but common plug-ins (Flash, Java, Office) were still enabled because they should not pose a significant interference, if any.
