Google announced last weekteam μια σειρά από βελτιώσεις στην V8 JavaScript, οι οποίες θα ωφελήσουν άμεσα τον Chrome και αναμένεται ότι η νέα έκδοσή του θα έχει από 35 έως και 50 % μείωση στην χρήση μνήμηs.
The team behind the V8 JavaScript engine explains its work in detail technical article on the V8 blog. The terms used in the article are quite technical and you may find it difficult to read it, but the result is that the improvements will decrease in Chrome 55 memory consumption by 50% for Chrome 53.
The measurements refer to trials that took place on the loading of a limited set of websites, such as Facebook, The New York Times, Hacker News, CNN, Reddit, Twitter, Imgur, and YouTube, but Google expects these results to be universal.
Chrome has gradually increased memory consumption in recent years and if it continues its upward trend then it is certain that it will also lose a large market share. And we say "he too" having for example Firefox which has a very high memory consumption and constant crashes with the result that its users have abandoned it and now has a smaller market share than Safari.
Google released Chrome 54 earlier this week and according to her schedule she is expected to release Chrôme 55 in mid-November.
