IE9 RC Shockingly Fast, Firefox 4 Beta Stuck

HTML5 / Hardware Acceleration

html5.jpg

In short, there is no competition for IE9 in this discipline at this time. Microsoft has the best hardware acceleration engine at this time.

Our hardware acceleration test, which consists of the Canvas 2D-heavy Asteroids HTML5 game, the HTML5test as well as Microsoft’s Mr. Potato Gun test, gives IE9 RC a 1137% improvement over Firefox 3.6.11, followed by Chrome with 423%.

Chrome isn’t a terrible browser in this discipline and it is obvious that Google has made improvements, but seeing the smooth rendering in IE9 RC is simply stunning.

IE9 RC is in Microsoft’s own Mr. Potato Gun test about 5x faster than the Platform Preview 7.

The performance jump is also visible in other Microsoft hardware acceleration benchmarks, such as in Psychedelic Wheel, which saw a 6x jump.

 "Not even a week after the Internet Explorer 9 release
candidate hit the web, a Mozilla tech evangelist has taken a public
swipe at Microsoft bragging about web standards compliance.



In a blog post, Paul Rouget takes issue with Microsoft's public
chest-beating about IE9's compliance with various standards,
particularly HTML5. What appears to have particularly rankled Mr Rouget
is a table, included in a February 10 post by IE boss Dean Hachamovitch,
proudly proclaiming IE9's near-perfect performance on a bevy of
standards tests as compared to other browsers, including Firefox.



Those tests, according to Mr Rouget, are not as objective as Microsoft would have you believe."
