The numbers don’t lie, so it should be an easy decision to crown as the ultimate Chrome of this performance review test.īut before you ditch the Edge or Firefox browser for Chrome, remember a few things.įirst, the test was conducted in an experimental environment with only two apps running. Going through all the numbers, we might soon put the myth that Chrome is the most resource-hungry browser to rest. Firefox sneaked in front of Chrome in the CPU Usage test, and Edge again had to settle for the last spot.īut when we tested the three browsers to the extreme, Microsoft could finally taste the winner’s medal, but only by a whisker.Įdge and Firefox had similar CPU usage results (7-10%), but it ‘edged’ out its counterpart by a single percent and Chrome by a comfortable 3% margin. Whereas Edge had clocked over 85%, Firefox was around 73%, and Chrome touched 70%. When we had five tabs running, the browser from Google outdid its competitor in the Memory Usage section. Still, Chrome again came out with flying colors in memory consumption, with 62% instead of approximately 67% for the other two. Next up, in the Private/Incognito Mode, all three browsers had around 3-4% CPU Usage. However, it consumed the least resources in the Memory domain, with Firefox occupying the second spot and Edge coming at a distant third. When we opened no tabs in the first test, the CPU usage was the maximum in Chrome, but only by minuscule margins. Let’s dive deep into the results of all these four tests and see what they have in store for us. The data of all four tests performed on Chrome, Edge, and Firefox made for some pretty interesting observations. While the former spiked up to 10%, the latter also achieved a higher 90% value.įollowing are the results data for four tests performed on Mozilla Firefox: Firefox Running When the number of tabs increased to 20, so did the CPU and the Memory Usage. However, Memory consumption increased by 10% (from 63 to 73) compared to when the browser had no opened tabs. There wasn’t much increase in CPU Usage when the browser had five tabs running simultaneously. It was even when all the extensions stood disabled. While the CPU usage was around the expected 3-4% lines, the memory utilization slightly increased to 67. Running Firefox in the Private Browser window gave a mixed result (compared to our earlier No Tabs Running test). We found it to have around 3% CPU Usage and just 63% memory consumption. When Firefox wasn’t running any tabs, it didn’t consume many system resources. The privacy-enriched Firefox was also put to the same tests as the other two, and here are its results. The former was found to have values between 7 to 10 %, whereas the latter was close to touching 90%.įollowing are the results data for four tests performed on Microsoft Edge: Microsoft Edge The browser recorded increased CPU and Memory consumption when 20 tabs were running together after a rigorous test. However, the Memory consumption was somewhat higher, at 85%. When we ran five tabs at once, there wasn’t much increase in CPU usage it oscillated between 4 to 6%. CPU usage stood at 3%, and Memory consumption was 68%. Using Edge in its Private Mode gave similar results as when no tabs were running. Likewise, the Memory percentage was also considerably lower, i.e., 68%. When the Edge browser had no opened tabs, the CPU Usage was a meager 3-4%. Here’s how the Chromium build of the Microsoft Edge browser performed across the four tests we conducted. Running twenty different tabs at once was enough to push the CPU Usage to 12-14%, and the Memory consumption increased all the easy up to 92%.įollowing are the results data for four tests performed on Google Chrome: Chrome Running The former was 5%, whereas the latter was 70%. When we opened five different tabs concurrently, CPU usage and memory increased slightly. Using the browser in an Incognito Mode resulted in CPU Usage of 3-4%, whereas the memory usage percentage was 62. When we opened no tabs in the Chrome browser, the CPU usage was around 4-5%, whereas the Memory consumption clock at 62%
