Google has released Chrome 23 to the stable channel.
The browser now supports GPU-accelerated video decoding which will reduce the load on your system's CPU. Dedicated graphics chips draw far less power than a computer's CPU, so using GPU-accelerated video decoding while watching videos can increase battery life significantly. In Google's own testing, the battery lasted 25% longer when GPU-accelerated video decoding was enabled.
You'll also find it much easier to view and control any website's permissions for capabilities such as geolocation, pop-ups, and camera/microphone access. This saves you from having to dig through settings pages to find these permissions. Now, simply click on the page/lock icon next to a websites address in the omnibox to see a list of permissions and tweak them as you wish.
This latest release also includes an option to send a "do not track" request to websites and web services. The effectiveness of such requests is dependent on how websites and services respond, so Google is working with others on a common way to respond to these requests in the future.
