Chrome 24: il browser più veloce che mai

di Alessandro Moretti

E’ il periodo degli aggiornamenti dei browser, in settimana abbiamo parlato dell’uscita di Firefox 18 e adesso è arrivato il turno di Chrome 24, nuova release del browser firmato Google che ormai pare aver superato quello di Mozilla in tutte le statistiche di utilizzo.

La nuova versione di Google Chrome è ancora più veloce migliorando il già rapidissimo motore Javascript del browser e introducendo il supporto a MathML, un linguaggio di markup matematico usato per rappresentare simboli e formule matematiche nei documenti web.

Viene introdotto inoltre il supporto sperimentale ai Custom Filters CSS e il tamponamento di 24 vulnerabilità, forse da cui deriva anche il nome, di cui 11 classificate con massima priorità. Per tutto il resto delle novità, ecco il changelog completo tratto dal blog ufficiale di Chrome:
