2. V8 Benchmark


3. Peacekeeper Benchmark


4. Kraken Benchmark


Conclusion:

In general, IE9 won a test, Chrome 15 won the remaining three tests, and all Chrome 15 should be a winner. But if you look at the test data, you will find that the situation is not that simple.

For example, in the SunSpider test, the difference between the five browsers is less than 60 milliseconds, making it difficult to distinguish between them.

Other test scores differ significantly. Chrome 15 is clearly the winner of V8 testing. Chrome 15 leads significantly in Kraken 1.1 testers
