I have tried Chrome with the ETICS web interface and the speed improvement of the JavaScript engine is impressive.
The only catch is the authentication, which you have to solve by command line tools, as Google expects that the OS provides the GUI for certificate handling.
To solve the bootstrapping problem here are some useful commands, given that you have libnss3-tools and ca-policy-igtf-classic installed:
cd ~/.globus
openssl pkcs12 -export -inkey userkey.pem -in usercert.pem -out usercert.p12
certutil -d sql:$HOME/.pki/nssdb -i ~/.globus/usercert.p12
certutil -d sql:$HOME/.pki/nssdb -A -t "C,," -n cern-root -i /etc/grid-security/certificates/d254cc30.0
certutil -d sql:$HOME/.pki/nssdb -A -t "C,," -n cern-online -i /etc/grid-security/certificates/1d879c6c.0
