I also saw it on my own testing system. It's difficult to say if 1 is better than another one, but a 1 tab use of Firefox seems a bit better, and many users still use only 1 tab;</i></li><i> </i><li><i>PowerPC support: Firefox support is still limited, but Firefox exists on powerpc. No need to advertise the fact that we have 2 different browsers;</i></li><i> </i><li><i>Customization support: you can add bookmarks and other customization to Firefox. Chromium doesn't have it (yet ?). There is also (still ?) a module to install flash support;</i></li><i> </i><li><i>No "It's dead Jim" bug. It may be fixed in the future, but I'm not sure it will be critical enough for Canonical to but a lot of effort to fix it. It mostly affects us only, not Ubuntu.</i></li></ul></blockquote><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">He also adds that "<i>in a politic view, it's better to have a product managed by a foundation</i>" because even though Chromium is open source, "<i>it's still very close to Chrome and Google"</i>.</div><br /><b>You can read Julien's complete email, <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/lubuntu-users/2013-June/004481.html">HERE</a>.</b><br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Another change that has landed in Lubuntu 13.10 today is the <b>addition of zRam by default</b>. zRam is useful for low-RAM machines - it increases the performance by creating a RAM based block device which acts as a swap disk, but is compressed and stored in RAM instead of swap disk (which is slow), allowing faster I/O and increasing the amount of memory available before the system starts swapping to disk.
