Browsers speed tests
It has been made to check how fast they render pages on different platforms. It curiously shows the fact that Opera 6.x and 8 versions can be named as the fastest browsers on Earth.

I totally agree with this and every single day I get frustrated with FireFox around multimedia environments pages.
