| 37 <h2><span id="logo">☀</span>SunSpider 1.0 JavaScript Benchmark</h2> |
| 38 |
| 39 <p>This is SunSpider, a JavaScript benchmark. This benchmark tests the |
| 40 core JavaScript language only, not the DOM or other browser APIs. It |
| 41 is designed to compare different versions of the same browser, and |
| 42 different browsers to each other. Unlike many widely available |
| 43 JavaScript benchmarks, this test is:</p> |
| 44 |
| 45 <dl> |
| 46 <dt>Real World<dt> |
| 47 <dd>This test mostly avoids microbenchmarks, and tries to focus on |
| 48 the kinds of actual problems developers solve with JavaScript today, |
| 49 and the problems they may want to tackle in the future as the language |
| 50 gets faster. This includes tests to generate a tagcloud from JSON |
| 51 input, a 3D raytracer, cryptography tests, code decompression, and |
| 52 many more examples. There are a few microbenchmarkish things, but they |
| 53 mostly represent real performance problems that developers have |
| 54 encountered.</dd> |
| 55 |
| 56 <dt>Balanced<dt> |
| 57 <dd>This test is balanced between different areas of the language and |
| 58 different types of code. It's not all math, all string processing, or |
| 59 all timing simple loops. In addition to having tests in many |
| 60 categories, the individual tests were balanced to take similar amounts |
| 61 of time on currently shipping versions of popular browsers.</dd> |
| 62 |
| 63 <dt>Statistically Sound<dt> |
| 64 <dd>One of the challenges of benchmarking is knowing how much noise |
| 65 you have in your measurements. This benchmark runs each test multiple |
| 66 times and determines an error range (technically, a 95% confidence |
| 67 interval). In addition, in comparison mode it tells you if you have |
| 68 enough data to determine if the difference is statistically |
| 69 significant.</dd> |
