Google Chrome Javascript speed test results

Posted on the September 2nd, 2008 under Business, Technology by Al

Google’s new web browser, Chrome, has been designed to be fast. How fast is it? Here are the results of a Javascript testing between Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer 7.

 

The Javascript speed test used is here.

Chrome also did better (overall) in this test.

Robert Scoble also tweeted the results of his quick memory test: “Chrome memory utilization? 61,548 (with Google Reader loaded). Firefox? 215,220 with just Twitter (which takes far less memory). Chrome wins”

Jeff Hicks tweeted his memory test: Same 3 tabs open in FF and Chrome. Chrome workingset is 105MB and FF is 62MB, that’s including plugins I’m sure.”

Walt Mossberg has posted his review of Chrome here.

So the jury is still out on memory usage, but it looks like Google Chrome is off to a good start with performance.

I’m looking forward to the availability of the Mac OS X version.

  • I’ve been very impressed with Chrome’s rendering speed. I did noticed that I was unable to right click on the left margin in my Google Docs spreadsheet. I couldn’t right click to insert a row.

    Google Chrome is definitely the fastest browser to-date, although I still personally prefer to use Firefox. With more browsers in the market, results on any internet speed test can only get better :P
