On most platforms we are close to google chrome performance on octane, except for windows. This is for both the shell and browser. See: http://arewefastyet.com/#machine=17 Google chrome is 25% higher than we are on octane (browser and shell). To give an idea where we are at. Here the score of the subtests on octane between chrome and firefox browser: > Chrome Firefox Diff > SplayLatency 26925 9208 -192.41% > RegExp 5007 2444 -104.87% > PdfJS 21931 15205 -44.24% > Raytrace 62036 43350 -43.10% > DeltaBlue 50772 36075 -40.74% > EarleyBoyer 41404 30227 -36.98% > Splay 18365 14599 -25.80% > Gameboy 65940 52506 -25.59% > Typescript 21399 17066 -25.39% > Box2D 40974 33661 -21.73% > Crypto 26473 24595 -7.64% > CodeLoad 16655 15707 -6.04% > Richards 29852 29134 -2.46% > Mandreel 26014 26379 1.38% > NavierStokes 26266 26813 2.04% > MandreeLatency 21826 31661 31.06% > Zlib 28807 47184 38.95% Now we have good and bad subtests. But most are already known and getting already tackled. So this isn't a good summery to know where we need to look for specific Window things. (e.g. SplayLatency is just a bad benchmark and we think benchmark is broken. See bug 958492) > Diff on OSX Diff on Windows Relative change > Raytrace 25.97% -43.10% -69.07% > RegExp -57.41% -104.87% -47.46% > Box2D 2.46% -21.73% -24.19% > PdfJS -20.51% -44.24% -23.73% > Gameboy -4.04% -25.59% -21.55% > EarleyBoyer -20.12% -36.98% -16.86% > DeltaBlue -26.65% -40.74% -14.09% > Mandreel 13.78% 1.38% -12.40% > Zlib 51.23% 38.95% -12.28% > Splay -16.01% -25.80% -9.79% > Typescript -15.77% -25.39% -9.62% > CodeLoad 3.19% -6.04% -9.23% > Crypto -3.97% -7.64% -3.67% > SplayLatency -189.68% -192.41% -2.73% > MandreeLatency 31.94% 31.06% -0.88% > NavierStokes -0.60% 2.04% 2.64% > Richards -20.31% -2.46% 17.85% This portraits the relive change in performance difference over OSX (chrome - firefox) and Windows (chrome - firefox). Also sorted. So this shows the biggest offender is Raytrace. Our score on OSX is really good, but for some reason it isn't on Windows. Also for some reason the regexp performance drops going to Windows. Box2D is a bit hard. Since it tends to be bimodal. So we are probably for some small time on a sweet spot in OSX, but we also have been bad on it before. Also for some reason our Zlib performance has dropped compared to chrome between OSX and Windows. Are we doing something something different on windows?

(In reply to Hannes Verschore [:h4writer] from comment #0) > Also for some reason our Zlib performance has dropped compared to chrome between OSX and Windows. x64 has more efficient heap access (no bounds checks) than x86 (which branches on every access). One thing that would be nice to see is if FF is relatively slower than Chrome just on Windows or on all x86 platforms. That is, do you get a similar relative change when you run on x86 Linux/OSX? (Note: to run FF as 32-bit on OSX, just start with 'arch -32 firefox ...'.

OSX is tested on 32bit, windows too.

On almost all platforms (except FFOS) we are a little bit slower than chrome. But really small. So that's on OSX, that is on fennec. That is on ARM... It is only on Windows we have a difference of 25% between Chrome and Firefox

I dont know how possible this idea is but I think it would be good to have a graph on AWFY showing this difference percent between platforms. The idea would be to make it obvious when there is a difference like this between platforms and when that started occurring. Just showing the difference to chrome on each platform in one graph is likely enough, understanding that the graph can pass zero. I realise this graph would be contextual with chrome performance between platforms also playing a role but it would lessen the chance of this happening again given most people only would check one or two AWFY machine graphs out of the many available.
