Light Internet Browser

I am currently using Firefox at home. It works very well. Fast and efficient. I have decided to use the PortableApps version of Firefox at my workplace. Unfortunately, My workplace has USB 1.1 ports making my firefox take 3 minutes to load. Is there any very very light Portable internet browsers?

Thanks

 

use gooogle chrome if it loads fast

 

sfi, one other thing to take into consideration is the read\write speed of the flash drive you are using. They can vary widely from one make\model to another.

Granted the 1.1 interface is most likely your biggest bottleneck. I found the FF 3.0.4 vers. to be quit snappy launched from my 2 gig SanDisk Cruzer.

 

chrome is not really portable.
its profile folder contain too much sensitive data,
which should be placed on your portable flash device.
but chrome's cache folder is designed to be placed inside profile folder.
the cache folder ( and its safe surfing cache ) has skyhigh r/w io
when chrome is running.

if you care about your flash device's lifespan,
please vote for the roaming profile issus
to relocate chrome's cache out of its profile folder.

Thanks, the Portable Google Chrome is the best I think. My workplace has has USB 1.1. That's um... 1.4 Mb/s I think. Google Chrome seems to go nicely with that. Thanks!

 

Opera is among the fast loaders, its light as well as long as you turn off Java.

 

ok if you dont mind the cache folder issue.
I guess you may like Iron portable better for it has a buildin AdBlocking feature.
Iron is a modified build of chromium.
All google-related privacy issues in chrome are solved in Iron.
I am using Iron installed version. it works fine for me.
You can try the portable version
