It's somewhat faster, but some sites' scripting does not work with Chrome's Javascript implementation, the flash blocking is much less functional than on Firefox, the built-in PDF plug-in is useless (view only), there are fewer search plug-ins -- and, shockingly for Google, the URL bar history search is WAY slower than that on Firefox.

I'm now back to 90% Firefox and 10% IE8.
