Kraken JavaScript Benchmakr (version 1.1) NEW LINK

~~Kraken JavaScript Benchmark (version 1.1)~~

This is a cross platform benchmark that should run on just about anything. It appears to be mostly single threaded so it will take maximum advantage of turbo boosted chips. Post your specs and results.

Qualcomm MSM7227, 729 MHz (ZTE Blade)

... Still waiting ...

I have a bit more hardware lying around I could run it on. I'll see what can be done.

This thing seems to scale just like Sunspider did, it likes lots of clock and doesn't care one bit about multiple cores. It likes large caches, my Phenom is clock for clock about 10% better than my Athlon X2. It has a 800 MHz clock advantage, but also a big L3 cache.

Almost as though nobody's figured out how to make a multithreaded JIT with good locality of reference for JavaScript to run on. In fact, it's exactly that! Bulldozer and Piledriver, with their large caches, should run really, really well on this test.

On to the test itself.

No, really Mozilla, FFTs and Gaussian blurs in JavaScript? Are you guys bonkers or just completely divorced from reality? Actually, seeing Firefox after 4.0, I'll go with a trial separation from reality. Hopefully you guys get back together, it's boring bouncing between Chrome and IE.

IE10 seems to take a beating in this test when, in quite a few other JS benchmarks (including Sunspider), it ranks right up there. An OSS community making a test which doesn't run well on MS products? My word!

Chrome seems to be the fastest, from results posted, echoing the truism as the perennial second place that Firefox has become: Pick any test, and it'll be second to either IE or Chrome.

edit: memory info

I might do a test run tomorrow at 5.2Ghz on the 3930K to see if the benchmark scales much beyond ~1500ms total. The CPU is capable but requires more vcore than I'm happy to run at for 24/7 usage.

Core i7 950(Bloomfield) OC'd to 4GHz, HT off, 12GByte RAM on Win 2008 32bit and latest Chrome. It seems to run about 100ms faster with HT turned off, and 2nd runs are always slower. Maybe it switches cores less often or makes heavy use of the TLB.

It is a common error to look at a number and consider it an absolute even when the [u]very next printed characters[/u] tell you that it represents a point within a range.

+- 4.5% gives you a range of 9% around the value, or around 150 'points' in this case. 

Neither value is a fluke, both are within the stated range.

What slow computer is this?!?

iPad 3 on Safari. At three times the slow of a Pentium 4... highlighting that ARM still has a long way to go to catch up to x86.

Kraken doesn't go well with Apple's ARM JS VM at all - Safari on mobile is very temperamental as to what it'll run well. As you saw above, a Nook HD (with a slightly slower processor) is almost twice as fast as the iPad3.

Firefox 19a2 ARMv6 on my crappy little 729 MHz ZTE Blade handset clocked in at 29,240 +/- 7.2%, for example.

The Nook HD actually has a faster processor than the iPad3, since both use dual Cortex A9 core SoCs, the Nook HD an OMAP4470 @ 1.3GHz and the iPad3 an Apple A5X @ 1.0GHz. Still, that doesn't excuse the almost doubling of performance from the iPad3 to the Nook HD. Something seems to have changed for the A6, though, since it's neck-and-neck with the OMAP4470 at the same clock speed. The Swift core in the A6 is supposed to be faster than the Cortex A9, but it's probably more likely Apple improved the JS VM.

So what do the numbers say?

It's the time for each algorithm to complete. The tests run a number of times (can't remember how many times exactly) so they give confidence intervals that are a rough indication of how "accurate" they are.

Shorter numbers are better. Smaller confidence intervals are better (means your computer will be more consistent doing each benchmark).

Looks like it's mostly a browser benchmark.

Actually, it's a combination of several items that combine to give an indication as to how fast a system will run Java applets. Obviously, each browser will have a different way to handle Java, and is likely to have a different Java VM. Within the same browser, the numbers appear to be proportional to the system's actual speed.

If you run different browsers on several systems, you should be able to get a good idea as to the relative speed of the Java implementation within the various browsers. The same browser run on multiple systems should give you an indication as to the relative speed of the systems.

Crikey, I had no idea Chrome was so much faster than IE or Opera, maybe I should start using that as my primary browser (although I'm so used to Opera's mouse gestures it would probably bug me)

The Ivy Bridge i5 completes the task in 2/3 the time. Still, the old C2D is still quite capable.

I can contribute 1.2 ghz PowerPC numbers if people are interested from a Mac Mini I have. A month ago I could have added 500 mhz UltraSPARC IIe numbers and . . . 400 mhz (maybe) PowerPC numbers from an old PowerMac G3. A few years ago I could have contributed 800 mhz Alpha 21264 numbers, too, but I seem to have a lot more space in my closet now instead.
