Labels: Dev updates
The Dev channel has been updated to 15.0.865.0 for Windows, Mac, Linux, and Chrome Frame.
Note: we are doing a performance experiment on Windows only. Some users will get 15.0.865.1000. This version is identical to 865.0 in features but has different optimizations.

Great Update - Thank You Google Dev Team!
Is there a way to 'force' the 15.0.865.1000 update using different performance optimizations?

After downloading the update. the bookmark titles are still removed. Will they ever come back without re-bookmarking everything?

I got my bookmarks back. What I did was:
1. Deleted all my bookmarks so it synced to Google and erased it on their server.
2. Exited Chrome
3. Restore my Bookmarks file in the Application Support area on my Mac through Time Machine to the file before it was corrupted.
4. Then opened Chrome again, and my bookmarks were restored.
If you restore the file without deleting them, then Google with restore all the bookmarks back to their corrupt state.

So I got the .1000 version with my shitty singlecore AMD Sempron Laptop with 512MB SDRAM?
I see what you did there!

Seems like the 15.0.865.1000 release uses less memory and is generally faster than the previous dev release.

This version is very fast!! I'm on a slow laptop, AMD athlon II dual 2.20 ghz / 4 GB ram / Windows 7 64-bit and this is clearly the fastest chrome version I've ever tried...
I'm very curious what you did to make such an improvement in rendering speed... My large city in cityville finally really flies, yea I know that's flash but honestly it ran very sluggish in all the previous versions of chrome... In fact I had to run that game in IE9 since flash games ran much better in IE9 on my machine... Now I can use chrome all the time :)
Great work!!!

Can't get print to work of a Yahoo EMail with this Dev version 15.0.865.0, I get a screen which looks like this screenshot http://screencast.com/t/MjiJM37tPJEa
Anyone else have this problem? Gmail works fine with printing an email, it's just Yahoo for me.

The New Download UI doesn't work on MAC.
Can't see anything and can't accept the downloads and nothing with it.

@Javiero: same here. I think they're working on it so there is no sense for this flag entry atm :)

Canvas elements (and most likely Flash, but only sometimes) are rendered as transparent elements and I can see whatever is under Chrome window. I'm on OS X 10.7.1. E.g. I can't display sites that use WebGL at all.

I'm not going to complain about the new page tab... but could you let the bookmarks bar showing in it as opt-in? Not "show always", but "show in new tab" option.
