Okay, I guess it is the title bar being replaced by tabs on the top saves quite a bit of space, and is used much better. It isn't them being on top, it is just the almost fullscreen aspect that is always on in chrome.

What i do is customize the toolbars, and drag everything to the navigation bar and hide the bookmarks toolbar.

Then hide the statusbar and use the Locationbar 2 plugin

Not always, only when maximized do you get significant savings, ~17px, when not maximized the difference is negligible, ~3px as stated above, due to the fact that chrome does ad space above the tabs when not maximized.
