I've been using Chrome since it was released. My only issue has been a nagging page cannot be displayed due to DNS resolution problem. At times, it has been maddening in terms of frequency. Finally, I turned off DNS pre-fetch and this problem appears to have solved. I think there's some compatibility issue with my AT&T wireless router, which isn't necessarily Chrome's fault.
All-in-all though, it's a great browser. Compared to IE, it launches faster including new tabs. However, it doesn't appear to have a significant typical page load advantage over IE8 except in cases of sites like littlegreenfootballs.com, which uses heavy JavaScript on its comments pages. When there 500+ comments, Chrome renders the page much faster than IE, but it will be interesting to see how IE9 handles this.
