jQuery has made some gains in 1.3.3 and even more in the 1.4 alpha.
- jeroen 17y agoWhy not? Comparing current versions seems fair to me.
- collint 17y agojQuery 1.3.2 is not the most recent stable version. jQuery alphas and betas are quite stable. The 1.4 alpha passes all current tests in all browsers. That's a big selling point for jQuery. I'd much rather see talking points about the robustness of the development and QA process of various projects. Also, the quick turnover for the "fastest" JavaScript library makes speed a fairly useless metric for comparing JavaScript libraries. Even if I was so concerned with speed I'd much rather see a comparison of the versions I'd likely put into production if I started a greenfield project today.
