Try it :) For me, Ctrl+S on Chrome on most sites hangs up the browser for few seconds, even into minutes before it shows the File Save popup. And most of the times, I do Ctrl+S by mistake out of habit has that binding is for searching in Emacs.

Not sure why Chrome takes minutes to present the File Save popup, but that action is instant on Firefox.

The same thing happens to me! I always thought it was just Qt/KDE being slow for some reason, but maybe it is Chrome!
