Software Review-Google Web Accelerator

I took interest to Lifehacker’s post about the Google Web accelerator. This program is intended to load web pages quicker. I have to agree with him that the amount of time this program claims to save you is grossly exaggerated. I downloaded this utility not a week ago and have already saved several hours. To be completely honest, I really can’t tell a difference with this. I might uninstall it.

This morning I decided to uninstall this program. I have noticed that my computer has been running rather slow lately, and can’t put my finger on what the problem might be. I looked at the Google web accelerator and found that the cache had grown to nearly 500 megs. I cleared it then uninstalled the program. I haven’t really done anything to notice a difference, but will continue to monitor the situation.
