As others on this thread have stated, it's quite a challenge to find a
browser that is both lightweight *and* can display most modern sites.
Most sites are so over-loaded with JavaScript, HTML5 and other elements
that they *need* quite a bit of overhead to fully display at all.

For basic browsing of text/image-based sites that don't have that
requirement to display dynamic content, I recommend `links', which you
can run graphically by running `links -g', which provides a very
lightweight graphical browser which can be run in X, a framebuffer
console and (I believe) wayland.
