Google Chrome would have been great if it had a working adblock and the stored passwords are hidden. SRWare Iron solves those problems but the updates are really slow.

Don't know about that. But you can get change logs and some other info from the first to latest release of Google Chrome here.

You have to be in Developer channel to get devoloper build updates. Latest and all builds of Google Chrome can be manually downloaded from here. Or Chromium builds from here.

Chrome and Firefox are about the same speed in Linux (Ubuntu). So I prefer to use Firefox.
