Description
Thorium implements various adjustments to the compiler configuration file, significantly enhancing browser performance, albeit at the expense of increased size. It utilizes the official builds of Chrome and incorporates Profile Guided Optimization (PGO), a strategy that leverages a profile data file produced by a profiler to refine the entire binary. This profiler conducts a preliminary run of the binary, capturing data on which code sections are most frequently accessed, their memory access behaviors, and the data they commonly retrieve. While numerous Chromium-based browsers incorporate some of these optimizations, Thorium stands out by combining all of them to deliver an exceptionally efficient browsing experience across platforms including Linux, Windows, MacOS, and Raspberry Pi. This comprehensive approach not only enhances speed but also aims to provide users with a seamless and responsive interface, making it a preferred choice for those seeking ultimate performance.
Description
Webian Shell serves as a web-centric operating system interface designed for browser utilization. Its back button functions like a traditional browser's back button, while the window manager operates as a tab manager, allowing any web page to serve as the default homepage. The system has the capability to save applications, bookmarks, and browsing history, which can be synchronized across multiple devices via Webian Home. Historically, Webian Shell relied on technologies like XULRunner, Mozilla Chromeless, and Mozilla's B2G, all of which are now obsolete. Gecko has shifted from being a platform for application development to merely functioning as the backend for Firefox. When B2G transitioned to community development, I believed I could leverage B2G OS as a foundation while utilizing the newly developed simplified architecture that distinguished between system chrome and system web services, thus paving the way for innovative adaptations. This approach could open up fresh possibilities for users seeking a more integrated web experience.
