Interesting flag landed in Chromium 35 right now:

Previously it was behind commandline:

 

 

--enable-bleeding-edge-rendering-fast-paths

 

Commit message:

 

Add about:flags entry for --enable-bleeding-edge-rendering-fast-paths. BUG=353107 NOTRY=true Review URL: https://codereview.chromium.org/201823002

 

It makes content rendering super fast.

It's really fast, have you found pages where it breaks, yet?

Looks like DirectWrite with the sandbox enabled is about to land.

 

EDIT: And there it is. Enable DirectWrite in the flags and it seems to be working pretty nicely! :D

[.stan]

Restrict about:flags for the --enable-bleeding-edge-rendering-fast-paths to Android only.

 

 

And yeah, DirectWrite is in Dev now, it looks better most of the time but there are still some issues with Narrow font types etc.

So tonight Chrome decided to constantly crash on me running Version 35.0.1916.14 dev-m, 

Anyone else having this issue? Never have had any issues with the Dev version so don't know how to reset my profile manually

 

Damn thing made me use IE long enough to download the portable version of Chrome just to get here,

Start Chrome then, In the few seconds before the crash, go to settings and sign out of Chrome,

this makes Chrome usable again until a fix becomes available.

Horrible font issue in Version 36.0.1926.0 (261726)..

 

Also if some people face issues with Aw snap thingy disable DirectWrite it will fix it.

[Boo Berry]

Yeah, noticed that this morning.

[LOC Veteran]

That bleeding edge rendering path flag, is only for android? Because it's only for android on my Chrome version. (36.xxxx btw)

Yeah they changed that

[Hurmoth]

I'm running 35.0.1916.17 dev.

 

I noticed that the Chrome Notification icon in my OS X menu bar is back. So I went to chrome://flags to disable "Enable Rich Notifications Mac, Windows" and it isn't there anymore   :s  Is that temporary or is Google now forcing us to have that?

Canary is now 64bit for Windows x64!

[+Zlip792 MVC]

Canary is now 64bit for Windows x64!

 

Indeed!!!

 

So in short we can assume that 64-bit in Chrome at least is ready for prime time..

Say what?!?

 

Did they ever fix this issue with 64-bit Chrome/Chromium on Windows?

 

EDIT: Nope, still cut off here in 64-bit Canary and Chromium on Windows 8.1. Bummer. :(

It looks fine here, are you sure it's not a problem with your configuration?

Having third party cookies blocked was the problem

Nope. Known issue on multiple systems here and I'm not the only one. =\
