Existential Me

My favourite browser has just helped me overcome the Javascript envy that I was secretly nursing for a long time now (after the Javascript browser wars began): it was lagging behind in the speed benchmarks that mattered, viz., Sunspider (and more recently, Google’s V8 Benchmark suite). No longer is this the case as this brand new version beats even the venerable Chrome on my machine (and presumably on other computers as well). See for yourself:

• Sunspider results for Opera 10.50
• V8 results for Opera 10.50 (will post a screenshot shortly)
• Sunspider results for Google Chrome 4.0.266 (developer stream)
• V8 results for Google Chrome 4.0.266 (developer stream) (will post a screenshot shortly)
