Google Chrome: Speed Test

Incredible work from BBH for the Google Chrome web browser. These speed tests were filmed at actual web page rendering times and show the speed of the new Chrome beta (click here to download that)

The video sees Chrome pitted against a potato gun, sound waves, and lighting produced by a tesla coil !

If you’re interested in the technical details, they used two high-speed cameras shooting at 2700 fps, the internet connection was on a 15Mbps line, the computer was a MacBook Pro laptop with Windows 7 installed, and lastly an Asus 24” Monitor. Google say no special software was used for this test.
