Why browsers are bloated

Let's reinvent the fucking scrollbar, which every goddamn platform with a UI already has, and make it behave subtly different from the native one!

Right-click a native scrollbar in some other app:
- Scroll Here
- Top
- Bottom
- Page Up
- Page Down
- Scroll Up
- Scroll Down

Right-click a scrollbar in Chrome:
- Back
- Forward
- Reload
- Save As...
...

Right-click a scrollbar in Firefox and Opera:
Absolutely fucking nothing happens!

What the fuck!? How did these terminally retarded idiots get involved in creating one of the most important pieces of software to the average user?

More benchmark results... this time using a ~1MB HTML file (http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/syntax.html )

Tokeniser + Parser: 190-200ms (5.0-5.3MB/s)
Tokeniser + Parser, tags/comments only: 110ms (9MB/s)
Tokeniser + Parser, text only: 4250ms (243KB/s)
Tokeniser only: ~5.6ms (180MB/s)

Making DOM nodes and adding them to the tree is the slooooooooow part. That's the code which is currently in C.

That text-only result is interesting... when the input is 100% text with all the tags stripped out, looks like a strcat/strlen is the problem. That was dumb and stupid string handling.

Tokeniser is more than fast enough at the moment.
