I am looking for a web browser control or any technology that can render web pages on a Windows Form Application Faster. Any suggestions? I am using .Net and the built-in web browser control is not an option to me because it has a lot of issues and is slow. I've tried GeckoFX and so far I considered it good enough. It's rather slow but faster than the .Net web browser control and it has a lot of good features too.

Update

I've been testing a lot of web browser control and we end up using Awesomium. Great web browser control for windows app And is fast too. Here is the link http://awesomium.com/

  • Keep your machine updated, Gecko is falling behind. You get the WebBrowser speedup for free with IE9. http://internet-browser-review.toptenreviews.com/ – Hans Passant Apr 14 '12 at 00:21
  • I've used Awesomium but it seems did not load saved file HTMLs very good. Specially when there is some images in file! That was slow too! – Ahmad Behzadi Feb 01 '16 at 20:00

Have you tried these:

WebKit .NET
It is a WinForms control library wrapper for WebKit written in C#. The aim is to make it easy for developers to incorporate WebKit into their .NET applications.

GeckoFX
It is a Windows Forms control written in clean, commented C# that embeds the Mozilla Gecko browser control in any Windows Forms Application. It also contains a simple class model providing access to the HTML and CSS DOM.

MozNet
It is an alternative wrapper for Gecko that claims to be more active than GeckoFX.
