First impressions (I'm aware that this is an early version as Google has not officially released Chrome for Linux yet)

-  crashed hard the first time I started it.  I selected the Import option.  Is mentioned in the "known Issues" that importing sometimes fails.

-  from second start on it ran very smoothly over a long session....except it segmented twice during the writing of this comment.....on restart it recovered the part of the message I had already written.

-  page loading/rendering speed feels comparable with Firefox. to me.  But Chromium reacts more sluggishly when pushing the back/forward buttons

-   Firefox remembers the zoom state per site, but Chromium doesn't

-   Chomium seems to forget saved passwords now and then

-   Chromium seems to have less customisation options than Firefox. 

My conclusion at this time:  very promising but not ready for prime-time yet
