Opera labs announced the availaiblity of alpha version of their latest Opera 10 browser which includes a new featured called “Turbo”<\/em>. Opera Turbo, is a server-side optimization and compression technology that provides significant improvements in browsing speeds over limited-bandwidth connections by compressing network traffic. This not only make you surf faster, but also lowers the cost of browsing when you are on a pay per usage plan.<\/p>\n

This is what the post had to say<\/p>\n

Bottom left corner is where the speed is<\/span><\/h2>\n

When turned on, Opera Turbo will display the average compression rate. Hover your mouse over the Opera Turbo icon to see a tooltip with the amount of bandwidth saved as long as it has been enabled.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"hover\"<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Throttle your bandwidth to see the big difference<\/span><\/h2>\n

Opera Turbo will work with any type of connection, but to get the most out of it you should be on a situation with limited bandwidth. In case you can\u2019t attend a crowded conference today or aren\u2019t on a bus connected through your phone, you can simulate a slower connection speed with: NetLimiter 2 Pro on Windows<\/a> and thepipe command on the Mac<\/a>. We recommend limiting your bandwidth to 100Kbps.<\/span><\/p>\n

Opera Turbo doesn\u2019t change the Web site<\/span><\/h2>\n

Turbo uses a technology called \u201cOpera Web Optimization Proxy\u201d, which is different from the Opera Binary Markup Language<\/a> used in Opera Mini. Web sites layout and text will look exactly the same, but image resolution may appear considerably lower as a result of the compression. Dynamic Web technologies such as Ajax (XmlHttpRequests) and Flash are supported, but some plugin content will load only after clicking on the empty element.<\/span><\/p>\n

Your privacy is important<\/span><\/h2>\n

Even when Turbo is enabled, encrypted traffic does not go through our compression servers. This means that when you are on a SSL site, we bypass these traffic and let you communicate with the SSL site directly. Opera generates statistics of the usage of Opera Turbo, but these are aggregated numbers and no information can be linked to a single user. Opera does not store any users\u2019 private information.<\/span><\/p>\n

Opera Turbo will be part of future desktop versions<\/span><\/h2>\n

This is a time-limited release, but the feedback we receive from this test release will help us determine how and when to move forward with Opera Turbo.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Head on over here<\/a> to see this feature in action which shows how fast it can load with and without turbo feature.<\/span><\/p>\n
