You've misunderstood the caption. They are not claiming that the GPU would alter the result of the benchmark, but rather that the fact that it doesn't limits it's usefulness as a comparison.
It's poor writing, but it's not such poor writing that something that begins "SunSpider JavaScript benchmarks only test the CPU..." can be interpreted to mean exactly the opposite without a pretty aggressive presumption of bias on the part of the reader.
- ergo98 16y agoIf they have a problem with the benchmark (personally I think SunSpider is a garbage benchmark) they shouldn't use it. They definitely shouldn't include it and then include a completely unsupported (and technically irrelevant) trump statement. That single caption says all that needs to be said about that article.
- GHFigs 16y agoI didn't say they had a problem with the benchmark, I said you've misunderstood the caption. I stand by that statement.
