I just discovered this, and made a little film about it:

Re: Chrome loads my homepage drastically faster!
I am using Chrome right now. For about 80% of webpages, Chrome works better. However, there are some pages that simply don't work right at all in Chrome, and I find I have to use IE to get them to load properly.
And it's not a "bug" in the webpage either. The webstore I used to maintain at work was like this. There was one page in it that no matter what I did caused text to overlap if you viewed it in Chrome, but looked just fine in IE.
Stuff like that is why you see some web pages have blurbs that say, "This site is best viewed with such-and-such browser version whatever and above".

Re: Chrome loads my homepage drastically faster!
Yes, there are pages not working 100% with IE as well so that is probably the case with any browser. I don't think I have surfed any sites not working in Chrome ever though. No wait, I remember one now only working with IE. Which is kind of silly - leaving all OS's out except for Windows.
Firefox is biggest for the moment so I guess most web designers make sure it looks best i Firefox. IE and Chrome is on a shared second place:
