Firefox. Because of FastestFox, AdBlockPlus (which TBH doesn't work very well), and Video Download Helper.

So I can save any video or song I want onto my iPod. I have every Doraleous and Associates video to date.

Wait, what?
Opera? Fastest? Well, that's marketing.

But... Performance tests seem to back it up:

Opera is consistently in the upper end of most of the areas tested, so I guess their own marketing claims are generally justified.

(although Chrome is notably absent from that list. And if anything is going to be faster, it's probably Chrome.)
Those tests are a fair bit outdated... my brother showed me one a month or so ago that included Chrome and the newer FF/IE versions, and Chrome was the fastest by a few milliseconds on each one, with Firefox just behind it and Opera just behind that. It wasn't much of a difference, though.

[sub]IE was about 3 seconds behind... [/sub]

Maybe I should test out Chrome then... Although the test does indicate firefox being able to handle my tab craziness better.
Testing it now...
CONCLUSION: The Chrome UI isn't adapted as well as Firefox for tab crazy people or at least for me. Some good things though, e.g. translating a page, easier closing many tabs and a small speed increase... So time to switch back...
