Now that it's been out for a while, does anybody have a comparision of the Pi4 to the Pi3 as a platform for web browsers like chromium, firefox and any others that come to mind?
I'm using a Pi3 as a workstation and it's entirely satisfactory except for the browser performance. Firefox-esr is painfully slow, chromium is much faster but only marginally stable, crashing the whole machine on ssec.wisc.edu when looking at Goes West images. Occastionally it also locks up on Google Maps, but not as often.
Right now the machine is running Stretch, current as of today. There's an 8GB USB flash device for swap but not much is used, typically no more than a few hundred megs.
I don't really want another computer, but better browser performance would be a real temptation.
Thanks for reading, and any insights,
