64bit Chrome Released
-
@scottalanmiller I've always had that issue with chrome, it's always just one tab that won't go to new links. all others usually work fine.
-
Yeah, just one tab!
-
Since switching to 64 bit chrome I have had chrome crash more times than in the last 3 years I have used it.
I can make it crash every time by clicking on a PDF link (which auto opens in the built in viewer) and then closing the tab. This is very annoying.

Yeah, the x64 Chrome has been unstable for me as well. I just reverted back to the 32-bit version.

Just a little flaky for me. Mostly good.

It's having issues all over the place on Mac os for me. but so does 32bit right now. So Meh.
Safari seems to work the best right now but I have problems with some webforms not working in it. I need a new default browser I think since firefox was new rewritten so it's not entirely native on mac (meaning it's slow). -
With all of the problems, I still think that Chrome remains generally the best choice. None are perfect, all are fine these days. If I was on Mac, I'd probably just use Safari most of the time. But I'm not so maybe I would switch to Chrome. Typically I am on a mix of Chrome and Firefox throughout the day.
-
I've been sticking to Firefox for now.
-
I use a combination of Chrome and Safari on my Mac. Firefox is just too darn slow.

I haven't had any crashes with the browser, but I am also using Foxit reader. I actually forgot that I was using 64bit until I saw this thread was updated. Oh, and Chrome is my default browser.

Has nothing to do with the PDF viewer you have installed. I tested with fox it, Adobe, and only the built in windows 8 reader. Chrome uses an internal pdf viewer to display them inline. After displaying one inline and closing that tab, the browser crashed. Every time.
