Google has released Chrome 18.0.1025.162 Stable for Windows, MAC OS, Linux and Chrome Frame platforms. This release fixes Facebook page hangs after a while and black screen on Hybrid Graphics system with GPU accelerated compositing enabled in version for Windows, this update also fixes HTML5 audio issue in version for MAC OS.
Google Chrome 18 contains some really great improvements including GPU accelerating 2D Canvas, and enabling 3D content for older GPUs. For most Windows and Mac users, Google've enabled GPU-accelerated rendering of 2D Canvas content, so that canvas-based games and animations run faster and feel smoother. You can go to chrome://gpu to see which features are being accelerated.
Google Chrome 18 is now able to display 3D content via SwiftShader, a software rasterizer Google licensed from TransGaming, Inc. Although SwiftShader won’t perform as well as a real GPU, it will be an improvement for many of our users on older operating systems such as Windows XP.
