With PC market dwindling and Microsoft following the trend of tablet devices, Metro is here to stay.
According to the conclusion of TomsHardware, Chrome is the clear winner.
The browsers compared are Chrome 23, Firefox 16, Internet Explorer 10 and Opera 12.10.
The website did a detailed comparison of benchmarks on various performance categories and non-performance metrics.
The five performance categories are load time, HTML/CSS, JS/DOM, HWA, and plug-ins.
The four non-performance standards are emory efficiency, render reliability, security, and standards conformance.
Its not only the outright winner in the Metro version, but also in Windows 7.
The next 3 best browsers are Firefox, IE and Opera respectively.
One significant fact is that all the browsers scored more points in the Metro version when compared to 7.
IE 10 showed major improvements in most of the categories and is worth the install in Windows 8.
This can be mostly attributed to the strange delay in start-up times of Chrome in Metro.
