Integrate JaegerMonkey engine in Firefox 4.0 Beta 6

In July of this year, Mozilla responded to public opinions about the poor performance of JaegerMonkey testing. "JaegerMonkey is only an early version and we will step up development, in order to facilitate the official release of it on April 9, September 1. It seems that the time is almost the same now. We should calculate this account with Mozilla. Today is September 12. To what extent has the legendary next-generation new engine JaegerMonkey progressed?

In fact, JaegerMonkey seems to have been basically completed and integrated testing started, because in the latest Firefox 4.0 Beta 6 Development version, the engine has been replaced with JaegerMonkey. If so, in the next Beta version of Firefox 4.0: Beta 6, we can see that JaegerMonkey was officially launched for the first time.

Latest Beta 6 Development version

Presumably, more users are concerned about whether the performance of the JaegerMonkey engine is as bad as it was in January. However, currently, JaegerMonkey only exists in a version that will be updated at any time, although the test may not explain the problem, but Mozilla officially took the initiative to come up with a test score, mainly compared with the previous version of Firefox, testing involves SunSpider and V8-V5.

Mozilla official test data

From the test results, the performance of JaegerMonkey is indeed a lot better than that of July. The performance of July Ms SunSpider has approached Chrome, but it is official data, is it really so strong, let's wait for the release of Firefox 4.0 Beta 6. It's not long before.
