light weight browser

[kuchit]

Does anyone know a light browser with flash capability??

For mainstream browser ( FF,Chrome, IE, Opera) i think opera is the lightest.
But, i look for more than that.

I allready try K-meleon, not good. the flash is keep restarting
and, SlimBrowser is O.K but its packed with lots of feature so its not so light anymore.

Some other browser are light, but without the flash capability.

I was an official Opera fanboy for the better part of a decade. Not any more. It began a steady and fast plunge into full on suck with the release of 10. I kept waiting for their "genius" coders to fix the problem(s) but I finally gave up about 8 months ago, which was only a few months before Opera officially gave up on it's self and switched to the Chromium engine.

For a lightweight flash-ready browser try Maxthon 3. I use that for my lightweight video browser and Firefox as my main surfing browser - should've given up on those Norwegian bastards at Opera years ago.

Maxthon is great!!!
and i like the way its look
thx wolfgang.
I even thinking about uninstalling Chrome. hehehe...

Palemoon is a....well...its feels like firefox.
it is light at first, but when i add some addons in it,
it became a firefox with a new name.

Opera has declined, not because it is a bad browser per se, but because it has less than 1% market share. Website developers will not waste time to fine tune their website for Opera because the number of users gained doesn't justify the efforts. As a result, many websites on Opera appear mangled or buggy.

QtWeb Internet Browser - lightweight, secure and portable browser having unique user interface and privacy features. QtWeb is an open source project based on Nokia's Qt framework and Apple's WebKit rendering engine (the same as being used in Apple Safari and Google Chrome). QtWeb is so compact and self-sufficient (not much dependencies), that it operates perfectly in bootable Windows (WinPE-based) and Linux environments (LiveCD) and has been used in many freeware and shareware projects, like Active@ Boot Disk.

If you could find an android emulator, I've heard nothing but great things about Dolphin.

Something's wrong somewhere

Nah just don't, it will burn your processor, android emulators simulate an ARM processor on a x86 ...

I let you figure the full extent of the horror

"http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7297585/android-emulator-uses-100-cpu-even-if-nothing-i-running-on-it"
That's why it's so much a pain in the ass to dev something on android when you don't own one

I strongly recommend not to use android emulator. Use VirtualBox + android x86 OS (you can download it here ), and you will get real perfomance increase.

Nonetheless, there's a possible trick, but I haven't tested it, yet

I've had the exact same problem and found a solution that works for me. In the config of the AVD I've set an extra flag "Audio playback support" to "no". I've also made sure the AVD has 1GB of RAM.

This worked for me.
