I've used it and to be honest, it's not faster. It does have kinetic scrolling and some good ideas, but they have only released the first version and that is slower than the current microb (at least the diablo microb - haven't been using chinook for a long time). The test they are referring to is actually a javascript test mainly. Anyway, I'm sure they'll be able to get it to a really good speeds soon, but for now, it's not better than microb.

Ahem, isn't the Diablo MicroB supposed to be based on a FF 3b4+? 'Cause the Chinook one is based on a slow alpha.

P.S. Can we get the Diablo MicroB? Can we, can we? ))

I guess perhaps someone should be able to build a backport of microB? For the more adventurous of us....

Myself, I built a backport of application manager. The stupid "too long version string"-bug was fixed, I have an "update all" button finally, and I haven't had any issues - other than a couple of missing translations, but I can live with that.

I could really like a "backports"-repositiory. That would also have the added benefit for the developers of having more beta-testers, no?

Yeah, a repo of SVN builds would be nice. "Backport" seems a bit strong, as I'm guessing most things for Diablo (4.1) will compile against Chinook (4.0) libraries just fine. (I get the impression there are few significant library changes.) To me, the more significant detail is that they're coming out of SVN, and therefore non-QA and possibly broken. But whatever it's called, such a repo would be nice.
