JxBrowser is to be Updated to New Chromium with Brotli Support

Faster and leaner web-browsing became buzzwords of the day as one of the Google web performance engineers announced, that Brotli data compression algorithm is to be implemented in Chrome browser.

Brotli developers promise up to 26% increase in compression performance compared to currently used Zopfli algorithm, which means faster load times and less resources necessary to render web content.

JxBrowser team is full on preparing a new JxBrowser 6 update, based on the latest Chromium version with Brotli support included. Stay tuned for the latest release news.
