"Subject: New Browser Benchmark Suite
... A new web browser performance suite, "PeaceKeeper", was announced several days ago that I've been playing with and I've found it to be very worthwhile, versus my use of many individual tests to see how different web browsers compare, versus the platform configuration they are running on. For us old PowerMac G5 users, I wasn't surprised to see it identify iCab 4.6.1 as being the fastest.
I've attached a folder of screen captures of the tests I made along with some info about PeaceKeeper, for your info.
I have test results from my 3GHz Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 PC, if you're interested.
Best regards, Rod
"
Here's copies of the screenshots:
(FYI - Safari 4.0.3 scored 5043 (overall) on an 8-core 2.66GHz 2009 Mac Pro (12GB ram, GTX 285 card) running OS X 10.5.8 with all updates.)
