That demo is insane. Din't know the browser was capable of this.

It’s WebGL underneath, which explains the ability to render really fast. You’re not drawing individual shapes so much as shoving data structures into the graphics card. (That’s not a statement on how impressive this is, just a “oh that’s how it’s done.”)

All thanks to WebGL. I've been using this exact test for years now to judge a phone/tablet before buying/recommending - devices with the exact same SoC can differ wildly in performance. Nowadays any phone that can't display 20k bunnies at 20FPS likely has: 1. An underpowered GPU. 2. Badly designed cooling. 3. A screen with a too high resolution. Of course there are many more thorough and appropriate benchmarks, but this one doesn't require you to install anything and will give you an answer before you're approached by the store staff inquiring what is it that you're trying to do with the merchandise.

    Back in 2014 when I started 20k was an impressive number. To give an example: the Sony Xperia Z2 tablet appeared to be decent, because it had the - back then - state of the art Snapdragon 801 SoC. I think I got less than 10k bunnies on it - no idea why(no power saving mode or anything), but it was a deal breaker for me.

  I use that as one of two tests. The other being https://www.shadertoy.com/view/Xds3zN https://www.shadertoy.com/view/Xds3zN Something with lots of work per pixel to complement Bunnymark's lots of pixels.

Agreed. One thing that I didn't realize when I first saw it was that the demo is able to render so many sprites because it's doing the simplest possible thing - rendering just a few textures. If you render a bunch of different sprites with different textures, you'll get a big FPS hit.
