You forgot to include the SVN Revision log....
prerender was disabled?! wasnt that implemented in chrome 17?
18.0.1025.56 fixed choppiness with canvas apps; 18.0.1025.58 just completely broke them again.
So far this is a quite stable build. No cpu hogging, but the truth will out tomorrow during stock market hours :-). No flash crashing every few hours. I like it. Thanks.
This is the fastest version of Chrome I've tried. How do I download an offline installer for it? I want to preserve this version because future versions will probably get slower.
Feature Request - support for Ubuntu (possibly used in Debian too) Update Manager changelogs....
"This change is not from a source that supports changelogs."
Teshoo -- You cant. If you dont like the beta jumping around, move to the stable channel. No one is forcing you to be a beta tester for google.
Red Aether - there's no guarantee that Chrome 18 stable will work as well as this particular version on my OS and hardware combination.
I'll put money on there being a way to get an offline installer version of Chrome Beta, as you can with Chrome stable.
