Google releases Chrome 10 stable, improves JavaScript performance
Just over one month after the previous stable channel release, Google has issued version 10 of the Chrome web browser into the stable channel. This major update to the WebKit-based browser was previously only available in the Beta channel and moves the full version number up to 10.0.648.127.
According to Google Chrome developer Jason Kersey, the latest stable version of Chrome features a protective sandbox for the built-in Adobe Flash Player plug-in on Windows systems and a new "Crankshaft" version of the V8 JavaScript engine - the Crankshaft compilation infrastructure for V8 uses runtime information to see which parts of the code would benefit the most from optimisation. The developers say that this technique is mainly useful in large JavaScript programs; short scripts, such as those used by the SunSpider benchmark, do not reportedly benefit much.
