Well, I will try to do something in my spare time. I'm a videogame developer so I'm already pretty busy. Google Chrome on Linux has worked pretty well for me for the past 12 plus years. But if it's possible to come up with a modded Chromium that offers boosted performance than I am down to tinker with that. I'll add any updates to my github. I'll keep you guys posted.

If Opera is open source then we should just be able to recreate it ourselves. I'm sure they have a github page or something.

@linuxrocks2000 when it comes to performance, I feel that it comes down to whether the browser supports hardware acceleration and if the pages you're browsing have a lot of ads.
So on Linux, chrome/chromium hardware acceleration isn't always a given. Or at least it wasn't, I haven't checked if things have changed but before you would have to build Chromium with hardware acceleration enabled.
As to the ads, the browser would require to have an ad blocker automatically built in.
But yeah, I've been pretty busy with work. I haven't checked out Firefox GX, but those Firefox-gx guys should add my suggestions if they haven't already.

Come on guys, this is Linux... if Opera isn't giving us our own browser. Then we can make our own... simple as that. They based their browser off of Chromium so it's not like their browser is this magical thing... it's just a a Chromium variant with some Opera spice, that's all.
