Nerd recompiles Chromium browser

[merkelspam]

Friend pointed me to a one-guy project applying some sensible speed patches and some helpful usability patches to chromium.

On his core i5 this gets him a score of 133 vs a score of 86 for firefox.

Reviewing his patches i'd say 'not bad', bro.

On the other hand browser is an internet-facing program so personally i only run what i can compile myself.

But if someone's using Chrome on a slowputer, i'd say try Thorium instead.
