Browser Bechmark scores

I can only test one browser. I use Firefox all day and hate Chrome. Chrome has the higher market share, so I'll use that

The CPU test suite is like 40 additional benchmarks, so gotta make compromises in terms of run time/complexity
Ah, good points.
 
The browsers I had issues with in WebXPRT 4 were Epiphany, Falkon, and Konqueror.

With Firefox, Chromium, Edge and Chrome you will not experience any problems in the latest version.
Sorry for OT

Do you feel it's worth it (in the context of CPU reviews) to try to build some kind of test for "browser multitasking", like open 100 tabs, load html, wait for render to complete? Haven't really noticed any slowdowns in web browsing (as long as the sites are using somewhat well-behaving JS)

I can confirm this on FireFox. I'm currently on the 91.xESR and just finished a run. It runs well and completes without issue(got a score of 94, is that good?!?). Also ran it in Iron(Chrome Fork)100 and it completes without complaint.

This is my hardware and software:
Hardware: Intel i3-3240 + 4GB RAM @1600MHZ single channel + NVIDIA GTX 650 1GB + EVO 850 500GB
Software: FreeBSD + Chromium

When I open around 110 tabs with different types of standard websites my CPU keeps fluctuating between 1-4% usage according to 'top'. Every few seconds the CPU spikes to a maximum of 14% CPU usage and after this super short spike it goes right back to +- 2% CPU usage. I can open about 150 tabs from the wallhaven site before it becomes unstable, and that's because I'm out of RAM.. Loading of websites is also relatively fast, even with the heavier websites. I can't speak for windows but Linux and BSD systems aren't going to have any problems with multitasking/many tabs/load html/rendering unless they have other apps open that take a lot of CPU. But for just browsing you're not going to have any problems on modern CPUs even if you use heavier websites.

Which CPU do you use?

You should always look at your result in perspective of your hardware. I get a result of 112 in FreeBSD in Firefox on the i3-3240. In Clear Linux I get a result of 111 in the same browser on the same hardware.

I also have a Thinkcentre-M75 with Ryzen 5 Pro 3400G and it gets 130 on windows11 with Edge. On the same hardware but with Clear Linux and with Firefox it gets 135.

Those are my results for WebXPRT 4, the older version (WebXPRT 3) gives higher results.

Xeon E5-2667 V2. I was doing a lot of other things while running the tests, which IMHO gives a more realistic score.

Also on Windows.

12600k on chrome i just installed...cuz I think its trash....and ofcourse it runs best on chrome, they designed it....reeeeeee
 
One of my older benches from 16.04.2021:

  • Speedometer 2.0 = 211
  • Octane 2.0= 77030
  • Mozilla Kraken 1.1= 521ms
  • INTELedtechnologies.com WebXPRT 3 = 336
Know i can get higher scores with a newer updated browser

I only have a 10 year old dual core CPU and also slow single channel RAM, so this is pretty OK.

I think that with the R9 7950X in combination with high clocked dual channel RAM I would get over 100 000 in Octane 2.0 and over 400 in Speedometer 2.0
