> what do you people use?

A mix of everything you mentioned.  For life-sucking browsing I
just use a $BROWSER on Linux, either through vncv or directly
at the terminal when using 9front through drawterm.
Within 9front I switch between mothra and, lately, netsurf to view
stuff I'm familiar with or that I have scripted one way or another.
On a 9front laptop I'll occasionally fire up $BROWSER on a Linux
running within vmx.

> is vxe fast enough to run linux well?

I've found it usable.  It's definitely not fast, but people are
working on making it fast(er).
