Note: Both FireFox has 5 extension installed, I gave time to being stable. All Opened in same invironment.
My Opinion:#Using lower Memory does not resemble all. #Main two thing is Browsing speed And Browsing Facility. Considering
That my opinion is-For Browsing Speed: Now latest Opera Rocks. Though previously i found FireFox is SuperB. but i tested with several site. Opera loads Pages first. Any Browser Based on IE engine is very handy and works fine with most of the site. But due to MicroSoft's extra care abt phishing and ad-on its security might feels heavy to normal user.
For Browsing Facility:No question abt Firefox extension. Its out of Question. Simply Opera is now become more and more user friendly. Maxthon And Avant is Super for easy Tab, Ad-block, Bookmark, RSS feed(FireFox Rulz in this case). Popup blocker and ad-blocker is become more and more developed and storng for every browser. Even Avant has such strong ad-filter that it could filter even Google AdSense Ad and most of the text link Ad.
Conclusion:Millions of ppl have thousnds of opinion. Choice depends on each ppl. The whole discussion is my personal opinion And a intention to experiment. I am not super expert, much learned. I tried to work with both Mozilla Foundation And Opera Desktop Developer Team. But i am not professional Software Analyzer or Some thing like that.
One Things:PLZ dont start any war on whice browser best. Just share your opinion. Dont hurt other ppl's choice.
