It would be extremely interesting to see any numbers that compare single-core layout (in Servo) with multi-core layout (in Servo).

- kibwen 12y agoHere's a draft of an experience report regarding Servo that was submitted to this year's ICFP: http://kmcallister.github.io/papers/2015-servo-experience-report-draft1.pdf http://kmcallister.github.io/papers/2015-servo-experience-re... Table 1 seems to give some relevant data: Site | Gecko | Servo 1 thread | Servo 4 threads ------------------------------------------------- Reddit | 250 | 100 | 55 CNN | 105 | 50 | 35 Table 1. Performance of Servo against Mozilla's Gecko rendering engine on the layout portion of some common sites. Times are in milliseconds, where lower numbers are better. Given the promising numbers here, I feel like the following bold quote from a Servo-related job opening at Mozilla is relevant: "Our goal is nothing less than building the fastest and most secure browser engine, and we aim to succeed by miles, not inches. We aim for double the performance of current engines, with no crashes." http://careers.mozilla.org/en-US/position/ollA0fw0 http://careers.mozilla.org/en-US/position/ollA0fw0
