Looking at the browsers from the user experience, microb and opera are the fastest / best optimised for mobile cpus.
Fennec is a nice effort to port the "bloated" FF to mobile platforms. It runs reasonible fast compared to the small cpu.
Keep in mind that the full Chromium and Firefox browsers through ED are not optimised for tablets and for exapmle you have to scroll with stylus by tapping bars (or use the keyboard) like on the desktop.
With addons you might get a better tablet-experience.
Smoothness could be compared to fennec, not very fast but in my opinion reasonible fast for a small cpu like this and you get the advantages of an up-to-date desktop browser.

Are you overclocking your n900? I as a rule spend several minutes waiting for fennec and usually my n900 gets completely unresponsive while I'm waiting and after it's finally finished to load the device remains borderline unresponsive....
the only thing that i like on opera is the fact that it rearange texts to be on the screen, when i zoom in/out.
but i don't read too many things on phone from internet, so i prefer to use microb.
for microb, the anoing thing is that he not have a select text function, opera again win here.
it is easier to use microb, but sometimes u need opera for those things.

I think it depends on the website. Which website makes these problems?
And yes I am overclocking at 900 Mhz, but should also work a little slower at 600 Mhz.
Edit: Got that wrong, you are talking about the launch of fennec right? It takes roughly 20 seconds on my n900 to start fennec 12 nightly.
93% - Opera / 7% - Fennec 6.01
I use FF on desktop PC/Ubuntu, but on the N900 it's slow and memory exhausting. This renders multitasking useless.
I would prefer Fennec if it had the speed of Opera or MicroB.
Never noticed a battery consumption issue with Opera.
Even so, i'd prefer to get there sooner on the motorway and use more fuel, than get stuck in stop start traffic.
I use Opera for most and Fennec for websites that don't work on Opera.
