Really? I find the opposite...if I use Iceweasel my machine seems to
become embedded in lucite. Chrome always loads quick and doesn't
affect my system at all. I leave it open for days at a time. And I
have a very weak system, this that old AMD Sempron I put together from
odd bits last year. This _seems_ to be borne out by the various 'speed
test's I've seen, though I have no idea how scientific they might have
been.
