Hello everyone, the Screwdriver channel welcomes you, the Home Master channel, and our partner, the x9 website. The question is quite interesting and secret: how to make Google Chrome work faster using v8 secret settings. So, let's delve into this issue together with the website izbit.com. Perhaps many have noticed that the beloved or free browser Google Chrome, out of nowhere, starts to lag terribly. This happens, and it's not always about the number of open tabs or installed RAM. The issue lies precisely within the browser itself. We can't say that Google Chrome is hopelessly bad, but initially, it has very few settings. You've probably noticed this, limiting the use of system resources, especially when compared to the more developed Firefox or Opera. In Google Chrome, most innovations or settings are not available to the general user. After all, everyone has seen the small list of settings in the corresponding tabs. But more advanced settings that can fundamentally change the program's operation are hidden from the general user. This is most likely because developer service functions are located there, which, after testing, may appear in the general list. So, if you consider yourself an experienced user and want to speed up your browser, enter the secret program in the address bar or search bar. So, let's go and tackle this very important and interesting question together with the x5 website. [Music]
So, if you consider yourself a programmer, do the following: enter chrome://flags in the search bar or address bar. Remember this. After confirming your action with the Enter key, a large list of settings will open. Unfortunately, they are all in English, so it's better not to change anything if you don't know what you're doing. So, to select and confirm from the drop-down list, choose the appropriate value: enable or disable. In most cases, everything is set to default.
So, the first thing I suggest looking at are the settings related to the graphics accelerator. If you don't have an integrated graphics card but a real, full-fledged one, you can try changing these items to achieve the best browser loading results. To find the corresponding item, use the search bar. If something goes wrong, you can always reset all settings to their original state with a single key to the factory position. So, don't be afraid to experiment.
So, for GPU rasterization. If you have a powerful graphics card installed, using this parameter completely redirects the processing of received information to the graphics card. This will unload the computer's RAM, especially if it's insufficient when working with dozens of open tabs. I recommend this parameter for use, as it will truly unload the operating system's load. But expect a solid load on the graphics memory. Besides searching for the corresponding values in the search bar, you can enter chrome://flags/#enable-zero-copy and so on. You can copy it in the description under our video, and it will immediately appear on the screen. Turn it on, try it, use it. If something goes wrong, roll back.
The next interesting setting is #enable-gpu-rasterization. This parameter will guarantee the rendering of all incoming information through the installed graphics accelerator, even if it is not supported by your browser. After redefining the list of software rendering, don't forget to restart the browser to get the result and check how everything will fly.
Let's move on to more settings. Another interesting setting is #enable-msaa. This is another menu item that allows you to shift page processing from the processor to the installed video card. This unloads the overall system load by using the graphics accelerator's resources. Browser pages will open significantly faster, but you sacrifice RAM and the graphics processor to constant loading. Try it, see if it works. If it does, keep it; if not, remove it.
Let's move on. The next interesting setting is #enable-opengl-drawing. This is the forced activation of OpenGL drivers on computers with the Windows operating system. This setting increases performance in most applications, not just in Chrome. In most cases, this will be noticeable on graphics cards from NVIDIA. Additionally, switching this parameter will reduce power consumption from the battery, which will positively affect laptop owners and smooth out images when scrolling pages and playing videos with particularly high resolution.
Another interesting setting is #enable-force-dark. Let's see, reload the system, try other programs besides Google Chrome. So, let's try and see.
The next interesting feature or setting is #enable-history-quick-provider. Caching pages within a couple of forward or backward transitions. This setting allows you not to fully load the website page, which accordingly saves traffic. Lately, when using mobile internet, it's become not unlimited, so saving is basically necessary. This setting will also be useful if you have quite slow internet, but it's worth considering that this parameter works within one session. After closing the browser, the cache is reset. Try it, see if it suits you.
The next setting is #enable-smooth-scrolling, which I just enabled for myself. Again, an ideal option for owners of quite weak computer equipment and slow internet. Enabling this parameter will make fast scrolling of loaded pages smoother, while reducing the load on the system's central processor. Believe me, when editing text or dealing with a rather large amount of information, this is a very useful item that reduces eye strain. It's aesthetically a bit more pleasant when the screen moves smoothly, right? It's convenient, isn't it? I enabled this feature for sure.
Let's move on to the next setting: #enable-parallel-downloading. This setting allows you to divide the file download stream into several. In fact, by default, Google Chrome is always configured to download in one stream. Sometimes you encounter a website that downloads slowly in one stream, but in parallel, well, you have to think about it. So, parallel downloading automatically splits files and distributes them among streams. Of course, the internet speed must be appropriate, otherwise all efforts will be in vain. Honestly, I just turned this little thing on for myself.
Let's move on. And finally, the last quite interesting setting: #enable-quic. Again, this parameter reduces the time of обращение to a remote server for obtaining the necessary information. This protocol was developed back in 2012, but it hasn't gained much traction since then. So, reducing connection time is achieved by a single connection to establish a connection, not several, as can be observed with the TSP or TLS protocol. The QUIC protocol is capable of working with TLS encryption, which significantly expands its potential. So, try it, see, configure Google Chrome for yourself.
So, our dear viewers, in reality, there are significantly more Google Chrome browser flags, so choosing the most significant ones is quite difficult, especially since they are updated or reduced with each update depending on the emerging capabilities. So, use them, see, configure, try, write in the comments. Good luck to you. And this is the Screwdriver channel, the Home Master channel. I hope this information was useful to you.
