The JS performance of Firefox3Linux has been significantly improved.

The JS performance of Firefox3Linux has been significantly improved-general Linux technology-Linux technology and application information. For more information, see the following. I can see from the Internet that the JavaScript operation performance of Firefox 3 has been significantly improved compared with Firefox 2, but others are testing Windows, and the performance in Linux is still unclear, so I tested it on the ground and found that the performance of Linux is also significantly improved, but it is still far inferior to Opera.

The test uses benchmark here, and my operating system is Ubuntu 7.10. The three browsers involved in the comparison test are:

Opera 9.24
Firefox 2.0.0.11
Firefox 3.0b3pre Build 2008010104

The test results of each browser fluctuate greatly, so each browser is tested for 10 times. The results are as follows (the result is the time taken to execute the JavaScript operation, in ms, therefore, the smaller the result, the higher the performance ):

Opera: Average 516 ms, maximum 623 ms, minimum 408 ms

Firefox 2: Average 1172 ms, maximum 1301 ms, minimum 1073 ms

Firefox 3: Average 885 ms, maximum 1059 ms, minimum 673 ms

It can be seen that the JS performance of Firefox 3 is about 25% higher than that of Firefox 2. It is a very good result for a mature browser, and the Firefox 3 trunk I have installed should be the debug version, while Firefox 2 is the release version, after Firefox 3 is officially released and installed with release, it is estimated that the results will be better. However, it is impossible to exceed Opera's estimation, and there is still a 70% gap in objective. Opera claims that the fastest browser is indeed not covered.
