Browser Test in V8 Benchmark Suite

It is always interesting to test different software and compare it with each other according to one or another criteria. The other day I decided to test browsers based on the V8 Benchmark Suite test (v8.googlecode.com). This is one of the many test sites, of which there is a huge amount in the network, and as can be seen from the address of the service, it is presented by whom and by what. A number of specific tests are used as tests, on the basis of which a certain total sum of points characterizing the operation of the browser is calculated.







The tests used five installed on my laptop (by the way, very, very weak) browsers, namely IE8 (Version: 8.0.7600.16385), Firefox 3.6.3, Opera 10.10 (Build 1893), Safari 4.0.4 (531.21. 10) and Chrome 4.0.249.89 (38071). As a result, the following results were obtained after the tests, by the way it is worth noting that multiple tests led to different results, but the difference in numbers was not great. The test page itself is here .

Test results





Eternal donkey IE8 showed the worst result, gaining 38.4 points.

Browser Firefox 3.6, which I have been using lately constantly due to all sorts of extensions and toolbars, showed 205 points. Moreover, disabling plug-ins and toolbars did not give a noticeable increase in the overall assessment.

Opera 10, which I used before Firefox for many years, showed 113 points, although visually, it seems to me, it still works faster than Firefox, but unfortunately it does not support a lot of things, for example, the same drug and drop, which is necessary when working with some CMS and so on, and therefore at one time I had to look for a replacement for it.

Surprised Safari 4, which showed 744 points. Again, the purely visual perception of this browser is not personally my best. So just at a glance, Safari loads pages much longer than Firefox or Opera.

The winner in the end was the browser Google Chrome 4, which showed transcendental 1635 points.

Of course, there are big suspicions that Google Chrome 4 is just well optimized for V8 Benchmark Suite from googlecode.com, but the browser is visually really fast enough. It remains only to wait, when it will support the toolbars (?) And acquire a lot of necessary extensions that slowly appear and appear.
