As you know, Opera is preparing us for Christmas (the Captain said that their Christmas is December 25) is a great gift, pre-browser version 10.50, the main advantage of which is speed.
In childhood, for the new year, I always tried to find gifts that were prepared by parents. I rummaged through all the closets in the apartment and, it seems, I always succeeded. Today I decided to find traces of the Opera 10.50 browser on the Internet :)

As curious as I, I ask under kat.
The investigation began with a tweeter, where without him nowadays, where one of the developers wrote a very
interesting message . Great,
peacekeeper ! If someone else doesn’t know, peacekeeper is an advanced browser benchmark that basically evaluates the rendering speed. It allows you to compare multiple browsers on the same machine. For each comparison, a key is issued, which is nothing more than a sequence of letters and numbers. Moreover, all the keys go in a row, and information about the tested browsers is available directly on the page. It remains only to write a script that would go through the keys, load the pages and tear out the tested browsers.
Here I want to ask not to test my browsers with the keys that I will show further, so that there is no confusion.All, of course, are interested in performance relative to the Google Chrome browser, which is now considered a leader. In general, things are, depending on the version of chromium and the performance of iron:
Somewhere in the lead chrome |  |
Somewhere they go head to head. |  |
And somewhere and Opera gives a light;) |  |
It is impossible to establish on which hardware these tests were made, unfortunately.
Of course, this does not look like a 4-fold acceleration compared to the current version; surely the nicomen meant separate tests, but this is also very good.
