I compiled and tried servo+servo-shell just now: - it compiles very fast, that's cool - it doesn't render my static pages properly, albeit its not too bad - its slow as hell (i did use --release for build and run) :)

It's definitely not slow at rendering. Network performance isn't great, but try resizing the window.

  I've tried it a few times and it's been super slow for me as well. Maybe it's just slow on Linux.

    Yeah, there are some linux issues (forgot what). Also, default build is a debug build. Very slow. Also, we fetch resources serially. It can be done in parallel, but we haven't gotten to that part yet.

    What in particular were you doing?
- mkishi 12y ago
  It's slower than Chrome on my 2011 Macbook Air. Which is disappointing, considering it doesn't yet implement the same features.

    Do you have a test case? What in particular were you doing?
    - mkishi 12y ago
      Just some very unscientific tests: loaded a few sites on both Servo and Chrome and compared the effects of resizing their windows. For instance, the frame rate looked about the same on Wikipedia, but Servo struggled on Reddit. Is Servo running on Windows? The comparison could be more precise on my 120hz Windows box.

        No, it's not. I'll check that test case again; we might have regressed something recently.

    Did you build with optimizations enabled (./mach build --release)?
    - mkishi 11y ago
      I did. I'll definitely have to check it out again, though, because it looks like pcwalton already fixed it! [1] [1]: https://twitter.com/pcwalton/status/595287602153926656 https://twitter.com/pcwalton/status/595287602153926656

        The fix, for anyone who is curious: https://github.com/servo/servo/pull/5936 https://github.com/servo/servo/pull/5936

> it compiles very fast You must have lower standards than the Servo team, because pcwalton is rather irate at the current build time. :) Rust will be prioritizing massive advances on compilation speed for 1.1 and beyond.
