Furthermore, all the unused parts of the Prototype library were |
removed from the RayTrace benchmark. This does not affect the running |
of the benchmark. |

+Changes from Version 4 to Version 5 |
+=================================== |
+ |
+Removed duplicate line in random seed code, and changed the name of |
+the Object.prototype.inherits function in the DeltaBlue benchmark to |
+inheritsFrom to avoid name clashes when running in Chromium with |
+extensions enabled. |
+ |
+ |
+Changes from Version 5 to Version 6 |
+=================================== |
+ |
+Removed dead code from the RayTrace benchmark and fixed a couple of |
+typos in the DeltaBlue implementation. Changed the Splay benchmark to |
+avoid converting the same numeric key to a string over and over again |
+and to avoid inserting and removing the same element repeatedly thus |
+increasing pressure on the memory subsystem. Changed the RegExp |
+benchmark to exercise the regular expression engine on different |
+input strings. |
+ |
+Furthermore, the benchmark runner was changed to run the benchmarks |
+for at least a few times to stabilize the reported numbers on slower |
+machines. |
