Apple has released Safari 4 purportedly the world’s fastest and most innovative web browser available on the market today.
Available for Mac and Windows PCs, it was originally introduced as a beta version in February of this year. The Safari 4 features the Nitro engine which runs JavaScript up to 4.5 times faster than the earlier version and this makes browsing more intuitive, more enjoyable with innovative features and more supportive of modern web standards like HTML 5 and advanced CSS Effects.
“The successful beta release helped us fine tune Safari 4 into an even better, faster version that customers are going to love,” said Philip Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing.
“Safari is enjoyed by 70 million users worldwide and with its blazing fast speed, innovative features and support for modern web standards, it’s the best browser on any platform.”
In Mac OS X Snow Leopard, available later this year, Safari runs as a 64-bit application, boosting the performance of the Nitro JavaScript engine by up to 50 per cent. Snow Leopard also makes Safari more resistant to crashes by running plug-ins in a separate process, so even if a plug-in crashes, Safari continues to run and the user simply has to reload the affected page.
