Browser Comparison, JavaScript Tests
This page documents a comparison of browser performance in how each of them fares against the suite of JavaScript tests compiled by ECMAScript. The goal in this comparison is primarily to assess JavaScript compatibility, and not execution speed.
The results are given below for the browsers I tend to use. All the tests were run on an ACER Aspire 4730Z, Pentium Dual-core CPU T4200 @ 2.00 GHz with 3GB RAM and Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2, 32-bit.:
