Why do you use the Firefox ESR version on macOS? The newer versions have higher performance.
Linux systems are very slow in this particular test if you're using Chromium.
FreeBSD was also slow in this test a year ago with Chromium but little by little it has become faster and faster.

The i3-3240 in single core is about 19% faster than the xeon x5675 in the benchmark I saw, so we can conclude that macOS and FreeBSD are equally fast in this test.
I will update my post in a few minutes with a result from siduction (Debian sid) so you can see how fast Linux is in this particular test when using Chromium.
To be clear, I can install Brave on FreeBSD and score a result of +- 116 in this test. Chromium is simply not the fastest browser for this specific test.

The only difference between the two test results above is the operating system.
The hardware, Intel microcode, Nvidia proprietary driver and Chromium versions are exactly the same.
It is Chromium 117.0.5938.62
It is not in all tests that I see big differences between operating systems with Chromium.

i always try use firefox-esr, since got the best experience with it; but have to admit, firefox is generally slower, than other browsers, but the functionality of the extensions is it that keep me using; that one ubuntu new snap version is faster than firefox-esr too, but if downloading, always go with esr, also i dont like sudden changes that happen often with newer version (like the new layout for thunderbird 115+)

the brave browser used only sparingly on android, but it seems really quite fast on this benchmark even on macos with a 13 year old cpu.

the newer mac cpu m2 seems to generate over 430 in this test, however, which seems another league.

I don't know if that's really true.
Speedometer is an Apple benchmark. Many of the "popular" benchmarks are developed by Apple, Microsoft or Google.
These benchmarks are not independent and thus, despite being popular, are +- 75% meaningless.

Some benchmarks where Firefox is faster than Chromium on FreeBSD I will mention here.

In the Chalkboard benchmark above, I see that Firefox is much faster than Chrome on systems that are very weak.
Think 8 year old mobile Celeron processors with integrated graphics for example.

You see the above website has something like >40 different tests.
In my experience, Firefox is faster than Chrome in 90% of these tests.

well, i could not agree with that, to me chromium seems alot faster, om rendering webpages, but maybe just my impression;
+ then i have quite some extensions, and again using firefox-esr;
but since i use firefox 98&% of the time, maybe i have a biased opinion.

I had given a link in my previous post to someone who measured real world performance exactly.


Here is an article explaining why benchmarks from Microsoft, Apple and Google cannot be trusted.
I hope it should be clear by now why benchmarks are generally a good idea, but are only useful to a certain level, and once you cross the line of useful competition, you'll start wasting the time of your engineers or even start hurting your real world performance! If we are serious about performance for the web, we need to start judging browser by real world performance and not their ability to game four year old benchmarks.

That said, there are several factors that impact browser performance:
1. How many extensions are you using and what extensions.
2. Which operating system are you using.
3. Which hardware are you using.
4. Which version of browser are you using.
5. Which specific websites do you visit most often.

I did a test yesterday Firefox vs Chrome where I compare the exact load times of 25 websites. Firefox was faster than Chrome in 17 of the websites.
I used Clear Linux for this test and what I also discovered is that Firefox is (a lot) faster on Clear Linux than the bulk of other operating systems currently in existence.
 
I really don't know whats about but i like it

Chromium 117.0.5938.62 + FreeBSD 13.2 + Intel i3-3240 + 8GB DDR3

Chromium on FreeBSD is much faster than on Linux in this particular test and on this old hardware.
It is still not as fast as Brave, Vivaldi and Chrome in Speedometer but the performance difference is only 16%
In different browser benchmarks Chromium can be a bit faster than Brave, Vivaldi and Chrome.
 
366 with tons of tabs and background applications open. Chrome on i5-13600kf.

For web browsing, the 13600KF seems to be only narrowly faster than the 12600KF.

Eu realmente não sei do que se trata, mas eu gosto
Oh, its like a test of CPU? i don't get it?
But my specs are:
CPU: Intel Core I5-11300H Base clock 3,10 GHZ, 4,40 GHZ in hard tasks and 4,00 overheated
16 GB of ram Sodimm, 2 channels. DDR4 3200MHZ each
and a RTX 3050 TI.
The bus of the entire laptop is 128 bits (i dunno if make any difference)
 
For web browsing, the 13600KF seems to be only narrowly faster than the 12600KF.

I have DDR4 and no OC on the CPU. But yeah, could very well be that it's not a significant upgrade.

In terms of multi-core performance, your CPU is 34.5% faster. But in terms of single-core performance, your CPU is only 2.4% faster.
Since your RAM is probably slightly slower I suspect we're going to have about exactly the same single-core performance. I think single-core is mainly what determines speedometer's result.

Firefox is considerably less--@ 174.

Perhaps it might be useful if you mention what result you get in version 2.0
You use speedometer 2.1 which gets slightly higher results than the version 2.0 that most people used in their test.

You're right. It is lower. v2.0 = 324

Apple's Safari browser gets 315 on speedometer v2.0
 
You're right. It is lower.

The difference in our scores in version 2.1 is fairly noticeably less than the difference in version 2.0

This is the result for version 2.1 on the first attempt. I could score a little higher anyway if I made a few more attempts.

This benchmark seems like it's completely useless to be taken seriously. Way too many variables to consider.
