V8 JavaScript benchmark suite version 1
- davidw 18y agoI'm curious to see it in the language shootout. I've been playing with a few stupid benchmarks of my own, and it seems to be pretty fast.
- litewulf 18y agoOne of the best things about this is that this benchmark is for "real work" and not "our for loops loop 20% faster!!!" I think this really drives home the point that this opens up new things for Javascript as a language outside of just DOM manipulation.
- geuis 18y agoActually caused IE7 to crash. I am hesitant about this kind of test because for Chrome it was like 1700, Win Safari 169, and Firefox 138. Anything that claims a 100x performance gain is hopeful, but subject to doubt.
- litewulf 18y agoI imagine that the developers probably have had that Javascript speed test sitting around for awhile, so by nature they would attempt to improve their performance in those tests. Besides which, I feel the amount of effort put into improving Javascript execution speed has been quite little thus far, and so a team quietly plugging away trying to create the fastest implementation could conceivably do far better. All that being said, I'm seeing numbers around 200 on my machine, and really not that much faster in other browsers.
