Firefox JavaScript Performance Comparison: Wine is also better than Linux (group chart)

Linux is not both an advantage, but also has many shortcomings to be improved, such as network browsing. Considering the wide application of t, Firefox3.0 is used to check the performance differences between Windows and Linux.

The test platform is configured with Core 2 Quad Q9400 2.66 GHz, 4 GB memory, and TB hard drive. The operating system is WindowsXPSP3 and Fedora 10, and Firefox version is 3.0.6.

Both systems run in 32-Bit mode. The red packets in the following test results are poor.

Unexpectedly, the Windows version was almost complete, and the advantages of the three projects were obvious. In fact, the weak performance of LinuxFirefox is nothing new, but we usually focus on page refresh and scroll speed. It seems that the problem is not because Mozilla is not working properly, but the general performance of Linux itself.

In addition, the reason why Windows Vista is not used in the test is mainly because the test shows that Windows XP is not fast. Although changing to Vista will make Linux better, XP is still the preferred platform for a large number of users. For example, 67.48% of visitors to TuxRadar.com still use XP.

Finally, it is a special supplementary test. The test object has five projects: windows Firefox, Fedora integrated Firefox, Mozilla compiled FedoraFirefox, Windows Firefox simulated running through Wine 1.1.12 on Fedora10, and fireora Firefox9.63.

Windows is still the best. The Fedora version is comparable to the Mozilla version, but it is not as good as running through Wine, that is, the simulation is faster than the native version.
