Thorium -
The fastest browser on Earth.

Chromium fork for Linux, Windows, MacOS, Android, and Raspberry Pi named after radioactive element No. 90.

Highlights  

• Compiler optimizations include SSE4.2, AVX, AES, and modifications to CFLAGS, LDFLAGS, thinLTO flags, import_instr_limit flags, and PGO, as well as other compiler flags.
• LLVM LOOP optimizations as -mllvm flags
• Learn more about these compiler optimizations and how they work Here.
• UI Changes and Patches for Linux and Windows that fix bugs, enhance useability, and strengthen privacy/security.

  This nets a 8-38% performance improvement over vanilla Chromium, depending on the benchmark and OS. See PATCHES.md for a detailed overview of all modifications compared to vanilla Chromium regarding performance, security and useability.
