![]() ![]() UI choppiness is unacceptable and sloppy coding. ![]() You want the browser UI to always remain smooth. This needs to be factored in the overall score. Its bad coding, as any web developer can tell you.ĥ. Robohornet and robohornet pro are complete jokes.Ĥ. IMHO, enabling these settings would have made Opera more competitive and this article fairer.ģ. Then comes Opera, Firefox and far lastly, IE10.1) We use fresh installs at default settings Opera does not enable HWA by default.Ģ) The only IETestDrive tests we use are Psychedelic Browsing and Maze Solver, and IE regularly loses to competitors on both.ģ) Octane was not used because it had issues with IE9 and Opera 12.10.Ĥ) We definitely need a new CSS test, but the only other options are outdated or on IETestDrive - unfortunately, Kaizoumark doesn't work with IE10.ĥ) It's really difficult to see that kind of stuff on a modern test system, but I will say that Chrome and IE10 are about equal in that department, with Firefox and Opera noticeably more choppy right at the beginning of the 40-tab load.ġ0447137 said:1) We use fresh installs at default settings Opera does not enable HWA by default.ġ. Subjectively, no browser can beat Google Chrome. People use a browser, not run benchmarks on it all day. ![]() Why remove the subjective smoothness ? 95% of the time, subjective smoothness is what lures a person to use a specific browser. Addition of the "Maze solver" benchmark is disappointing.5. Both google and mozilla agree that this is a good real-world benchmark.4. Most use code that is inefficient and not used anywhere else on the web, making it quite theoretical.3. I find the over-reliance on "Internet Explorer Test drive" benchmarks disturbing. Did you ensure that Opera has Hardware acceleration and WebGL enabled in about:config ? AFAIk, Opera does not enable HWA by default.2. 09/02/12: Google Chrome turns four years old.Ġ9/06/12: Only 30% of Firefox users have hardware suitable enough for hardware acceleration.Ġ9/13/12: Mozilla to launch new IonMonkey JavaScript engine in Firefox 18 on New Year's Day.Ġ9/14/12: Google discontinues support for IE8 in Google Apps.Ġ9/15/12: Google intends to add Do Not Track to Chrome by year's end.Ġ9/20/12: Microsoft tells Safari users to switch to Bing after Google is found violating privacy settings.ġ0/11/12: Mozilla pulls Firefox 16 due to security concerns, temporarily urges users to downgrade.ġ0/26/12: Microsoft releases Windows 8, including Internet Explorer 10.ġ0/27/12: Yahoo intends to ignore Do Not Track requests from IE10, claims it shouldn't be the default.ġ0/30/12: Mozilla Sends Cake to Microsoft IE Team for IE10 Congratsġ0/31/12: Mozilla says missing Browser Ballot screen cost them 6 to 9 million Firefox downloads.ġ1/06/12: Microsoft calls IE10 the fastest Web browser, cites New Relic, Strangeloop Networks, and Tom's Hardware's RoboHornet Pro results.ġ1/10/12: Mozilla claims Firefox 18 will decrease start times by up to 25%.ġ1/12/12: Google claims Chrome is 26% faster than last year, according to its own Octane benchmark. ![]()
