Browser benchmarks! Chromium leading but ephy close!
I was curious to see how faster epiphany with the webkit backend was comparing to Firefox 3.5 since it feels much much faster. A quick google introduced me to a new browser benchmarking service: Peacekeeper. It makes several tests including rendering (of course
), social websites performance, javascript etc.
The results vary according to the hardware you’re running of course. So if you make the test you will get different results from the ones I had. Besides epiphany and firefox I decided to try chromium as well. I haven’t used chromium in linux yet, so I did not new what to expect. Better then words, here are screenshots of the results.
Firefox 3.5.4

Epiphany 2.27.90

Chromium 4.0.204.0

These tests where all done running Ubuntu 9.04 in a P4 with 1GB RAM. It’s not my main computer, I did during lunch hour at work. I’ll see how it goes with my Intel Dual Core @ 2.4GHZ.
It seems I’ll be using chromium more although ephy is doing great!
