Puffin loads pages much faster than Chrome on both Android and iPhone. It also claims that it has the fastest JS engine! I thought it is not possible because iOS doesn't approve apps using their own html and/or js engine.
The question is what does puffin do to load pages faster?
IIRC you just have to stick with the rendering engine (Webkit) on iOS, but you can supply your own networking (hello SPDY) and JS stack, as well as the UI elements.<p>Another way except fine-tuning networking and script engine parameters is to fuel traffic through minifying proxies and using more aggressive caching strategies.
