Hi Alejandro,

I would like to recommend you compare the latest epiphany with the
latest firefox (both in dapper), in terms of features, 'memory leaks',
speed in general and the capacity of show up total messed up code and
clean code in a sane way.

I believe that both epiphany and totem will be way better in the
upcoming GNOME release due to the high amount of the work done, not
only in these two projects but in the new GNOME as a whole.

Since it's the wrong list to discuss this subject, let me know about
your issues off-list, subscribed to a GNOME list or open bugs in their
bugzilla.

Hope that helps,
