    Conclusion:Firefox is quite capable in both Linux and Windows.

    Opera Turbo feature, is not mentioned here, it can boost speed in real surf. And also when we open a closed tab in Opera it opens them instantly, that's why Opera holds memory for closed, tab.

    Opera still can't render pages properly, still can't print content properly, and we waste our time with senseless tests of imperceptible speed.
