PeaceKeeper Browser Benchmarks - Safari 5 vs Other Browsers (OS X and WinXP)
Posted: June 11, 2010:
FYI, here are my latest PeaceMaker browser tests using my 2.26GHz Mac mini running both OS X 10.6.3 and WindowsXP Pro via Parallels 5 and my 3GHz Intel P35/E8400 4GB WindowsXP Pro PC, all using the latest web browsers.
I've found that other browser tests, such as those mentioned in the (PCworld) "Claim Exposed: Apple Safari 5 Not Fastest" article, are too flaky, have poor repeatability and don't clearly show what has changed in browser updates, from one version to another. Chrome is still the fastest, on both the mini running OS X or XP and a screamer on my fast PC.
Screen captures attached and labeled as to what they were running on.
FWIW, Rod P.
