Default 'Real' JavaScript benchmark topped by...Microsoft

From http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/04...ipt_benchmark/

Quote:
Douglas Crockford - the man who "discovered" JSON and a senior JavaScript architect at Yahoo! – has released a new benchmark designed to test the "actual" performance of the major web browsers on "real" JavaScript applications. And according to the test, the browser with the speediest JavaScript engine...is not Google Chrome.

In fact, when running the benchmark, Chrome and its new Crankshaft engine are slower than all the other major browsers. And the fastest browser, in the estimation of Crockford, isn't Firefox or Opera.

It's Internet Explorer 10, which is currently available as a preview.

Well, this is typically something Microsoft would do and not anyone else, comparing a product that's at least a year away to current competitor's products to show how superior theirs is. By the time IE10 comes out, Chrome and Firefox will be at least two major revision levels further along AND have updated their js engines. As always, IE10 will be behind the curve in almost every area of browser performance and technical abilities.

IE always holds back the web.
