If you aren't using Google Chrome yet, you should be. When it comes to browser speed—and especially JavaScript performance—Mozilla and Microsoft can't compete with Google. But Chrome can go even faster if you're willing to make some adjustments under the hood.
To help with that effort, we've gathered for your consideration a few of our favorite free Google Chrome extensions and tweaks. Experience the power enhancements they provide, and in a few days you'll wonder how you ever survived online with a bare-bones browser.

Disable Anti-phishing Filter if you’re a Seasoned User

While I wouldn’t suggest this to everyone, you can disable the anti-phishing filter of Google Chrome if you have basic knowledge of phishing websites and know how to avoid and stop them from jeopardizing your internet presence. Disabling it is pretty easy:
Wrench icon> Options> Under the hood> Privacy> Uncheck the ‘Enable phishing and malware protection’ option.
This will considerably speed up Google Chrome by saving internet bandwidth.

Disable Sending Usage Statistics and Log files

Both of these data don’t contribute much to your browsing experience. Most of the users don’t even know about log files and what are statistics but cold numbers that anyone hardly knows what to do with. So, by disabling log files, you stop Google Chrome from keeping a tab on your online activity and free RAM space. You can stop sending your usage statistics to Google by un-ticking the ‘Send usage data to Google’ option in advance settings in Google chrome.

Extensions Make it Slow

As much as you may love the little extensions peppering your browser, ultimately it slows down Google Chrome. When we come across a shiny, new extension, we feel like we would use it every day, but often we forget about it and it runs in the background slowing it down. You can check if such extensions are using up too much memory by clicking on the wrench menu beside the Address Bar and using the View Background Pages option. If you find any extension that you haven’t been using recently (or will not, in the future) then disable them.

Install FastestChrome

Remember how I was rambling on about keeping your extensions to a minimum? Well, there’s one extension you must have to help you have a better experience with Chrome. It’s called FastestChrome.
FastestChrome comes with features like endless pages loading, open searches in a new tab with middle mouse click and automatically turns text URLs into links. It doesn’t reduce the memory your Chrome browser takes up, but it make your usage experience much faster and better.
