Hi, I have done some benchmarks of the Google V8 versus WebKit SquirrelFish Javascript engine on an ARM11 platform running at 200MHz and my results for V8 were significantly higher than I had expected, especially with it's ability for native platform code generation. Some things were faster on V8, but in most cases, WebKit SquirrelFish performed the best. I ran the SunSpider test and my results are as follows:
3d: 3d-cube webkit=4,966ms v8=5,229ms 3d-morph webkit=16,438ms v8=28,593ms 3d-raytrace webkit=4,998ms v8=failed due to max call stack access: access-binary-trees webkit=1,100ms v8=1,284ms access-fannkuch webkit=1,926ms v8=1,652ms access-nbody webkit=6,628ms v8=14,622ms access-nsieve webkit=844ms v8=691ms bitops: bitops-3bits-bits-in-byte webkit=665ms v8=309ms bitops-bits-in-byte webkit=990ms v8=515ms bitops-bitwise-and webkit=730ms v8=911ms controlflow: controlflow-recursive webkit=604ms v8=249ms crypto: crypto-aes webkit=1,545ms v8=6,701ms crypto-md5 webkit=1,838ms v8=7,045ms crypto-sha1 webkit=1,723ms v8=6,816ms date: date-format-tofte webkit=3,052ms v8=19,208ms date-format-xparb webkit=5,499ms v8=21,629ms math: math-cordic webkit=4,172ms v8=18,566ms math-partial-sums webkit=11,905ms v8=17,729ms math-spectral-norm webkit=2,520ms v8=6,877ms regexp: regexp-dna webkit=7,390ms v8=14,048ms string: string-base64 webkit=2,548ms v8=10,101ms string-fasta webkit=4,250ms v8=23,918ms string-tagcloud webkit=5,851ms v8=22,663ms string-unpack-code webkit=5,974ms v8=41,589ms string-validate-input webkit=4,446ms v8=15,660ms I was under the impression that the V8 Javascript engine would perform significantly better, but this seems not to be the case. Do others concur with these results? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ v8-users mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/v8-users -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
