Avant Browser

A good reason. Knowing you made a difference feels wonderful.

Though so, but why is this celebrated?
On topic: You did a very nice job Sara!

What is AvantGuard? ^^

So it can't be renamed to something more simple like "If you dont get redirected, click here" ?

"If your browser does not support meta redirection please click HERE to be redirected."

Isn't it a bit confusing for non technical people?

Just wondering, the blog doesn't really looks more like an release news site. Isn't a blog supposed to have some kind of text in it written by someone on the development team? (Anderson or Jasmine)

Is there an estimated release month? Or even just Q (Q2,Q3,Q4) ?

Download Orca. It's Avant based on Gecko

Like in Chrome? That would be sweet.

Same here.

But there is a problem: http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/archives/000572.html

Only two things, stability and speed. I find that there are many pages on which Avant hangs. For example digg.com but most importantly, multi thread the browser. Watching a video, especially in HD, while loading another page in the background makes the video hang. Features I would like to see improv...

How about renaming this thread to something like "New Avant Browser version thread" ?

Same problem here.
But now with IE itself.

Well... 'split' it the wrong word. Each application runs in it own thread. So, Windows doesn't 'split' anything, it just distributes the threads kind of evenly.

It will not split up threads, it will just spread out the load. I just tried watching multible HD videos on Gametrailers. 25% CPU use (Quad core). Chrome uses around 50% and spreads the load evenly. Avant is single threaded.

There are enthusiast motherboards with two slots. Multi processor is not something we will ever see in a normal computer. That will always be a server thing for 99% of the time. And you cannot say GHz*number of cores. Its just plain wrong. A single threaded app (like Avant, *hint*) can't run any fas...

The movie works fine @ me.

Try watching http://www.gametrailers.com/player/42751.html while loading http://edbpriser.dk

Exaclty. Avant fails where IE succeeds.
In IE you can watch video while loading pages in the background, but not in Avant. And that is not even a threading problem. Avant stalls on many pages where no other browser have a problem.
