The fourth beta version that surfaced earlier this week went a few notches ahead of Firefox (Minefield) 3.2a1 and Google Chrome in a review conducted by CNet, to take the top-sport for the fastest web-browser. Internet Explorer (IE) versions 7 and 8, Opera 9.6, Firefox 3, Chrome, Firefox(Minefield) 3.1 Alpha 1 and Safari 4 were put through JavaScript tests using the SunSpider suite. The PC was equipped with a Core 2 Duo processor running at 2.10 GHz. Safari 4 beta gave IE 7 a sound thrashing at the test, emerging 42 times faster. The performance difference between the two were so vast that the reviewers had to prepare a seperate graph without IE 7 so there could be more resolution in the charts showing the differences between the rest of the contendors. Then again, one must take into account the fact that Chrome and Firefox (Minefield) 3.2 weren't all that behind Safari 4 beta, only a few notches. The scores are denoted by render time in terms of milliseconds. Lesser the better. The scores stand at:</p><ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Safari 4 (Total time: 910 ms)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Mozilla Minefield 3.2a1 (1,136 ms)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Google Chrome (1,177 ms)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Firefox 3 (3,250 ms)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Opera 9.6 (4,076 ms)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Internet Explorer 8 (5,839 ms)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Internet Explorer 7 (39,026 ms)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><img src="http://www.techpowerup.com/img/09-02-26/37b.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></li> </ul></blockquote><p></p>
