Pause at 0:47 in 720p fullscreen and look at the address field. It says "File:/// Users/Kevin/desktop 'name of the file' . html"
The webpage is loaded through the local drive of the computer and not the Internet, thus it loads instantly and it's not a fair test because it's not loading on the web. FAKE .......

I noticed that the mouse cursor is also on the forward button in the browser.

Regardless, it is still a well done advertisement even if it is spoofed.

Errmm I'd say they're testing the speed of page rendering, as in how fast the browser is capable of drawing the entire page - and not the speed of their internet connection.

Yup

But they are Google, they are the backbone of the internet in an area with mountains of bandwidth.

So what. This is a r e n d e r i n g test. All they are showing is how quickly Chrome can turn HTML markup into a rendered webpage.

EDIT: They probably use the forward button as reload could take things out of cache and give a coloured result.

Out of curiosity, why would loading from cash give different results than loading off the same local HDD?

We are talking about microscopic gains, but if a page had already been loaded and is stored in the browser cache it *could* load fractionally faster than if it has to take the file off the hdd and read it in and compile everything.

I have absolutely no evidence to back this up, but if I was doing a test that I wanted to be as transparent as possible then that is a factor I would consider.

Hmm, could be, would be nice to test it to see if it was any different.

Take a deep breath, relax, and then look for the tongue smilie in my post.

FFS, you guys don't half take things seriously, I was purely posting it because it was fun, not because it's entirely accurate.

A very accurate observation I'd say.
