It is like 10GB download and it takes a decent amount of time to download and compile. They don't make it that easy.
Basically this is an optimized browser made for the snapdragon processor. I have been running it for a few weeks and it is pretty solid. Really fast. I did some benchmarks vs firefox and chrome and it is between 10% - 30% faster. It just seems snappier than other browsers.
Here are images of the benchmarks.

Here is a screenshot of the browser
The older version of SWE built by this guy:

Actually had better sunspider scores, but the newer version is much better at octane and kraken.
However it looks like since google switched to the blink engine sunspider is no longer something they are optimizing for. However the SWE browser scores are still 30% faster. It asks for a bunch of permissions. I am not sure which ones are actually necessary so I left it as is.
Here is link to the download:

Feb 1st Build
You MUST uninstall the dec 12 build before installing the new one or it won't install (Its because of the way I signed the first apk. This shouldn't be issue in future builds).
File Uploading Works
Its a little faster.
