Re: [MLUG] Google Chrome for Linux?

Perhaps you might run the same test with IE 7.0 as 6.0 becoming
obsolete.  Also, IE 7.0 is known to be faster that 6.0.

I just ran SunSpider benchmark...

http://webkit.org/perf/sunspider-0.9/sunspider.html

...on Google Chrome and it says that it took 2505 ms, which I assume
means 
that I was getting 60/2.319 = 25.88 on my computer.  I assume that 
computer speed is critical, so here are my result for Firefox on the
same 
computer: 60/4.739 = 12.66, and IE: 60/44.639 = 1.34.  Here's a table of

my results:

Browser				SunSpider
------------------      	---------
Google Chrome 0.2.149.29	25.88
Firefox 3.0.1			12.66
Internet Explorer 6.0		 1.34

IE was so amazingly slow it couldn't have been more obvious -- it was
the 
string tests that really killed it (34 s for IE, 1.015 s for Firefox and

0.769 s for Chrome).
