I think it's quite important to state the OS you're using. All Browsers tend to fly on Windows, except for ironically MS browsers. Safari tends to be fastest on MacOS. Basically every mainstream browser sucks in performance, memory usage, cpu, battery usage and so on, on Linux distros, comparatively to the former.

Can't edit anymore, but you're absolutely right. This is on OSX. Safari is a gem, and I used it as my daily driver for 2 years. I switched to Chrome for work stuff because there are no equivalent necessary Safari extensions for some of the tools I use. Not sure why I didn't stay on Safari for personal.
