It's not just you, and it's not just Safari. I use Firefox for everything, but have to keep Chrome installed for the Google products I'm forced to use for work. I don't know if I can accuse them of intentional sabotage, but they certainly don't do performance testing outside their own browser.

I don't use Google products in Firefox or other browsers often enough to notice or care about performance but some say spoofing the UA string to chrome fixes many of those issues.

I hope you've tried that.

Wouldn't that cause positive feedback in the analytics? Firefox usage is already below the magic 5%. If we start hiding, we may soon join IE5 in unsupported land.
