Kestrel du Rennmaschine – Opera 9.5 Performance Test

Opera 9.23 ist schnell, doch die Alpha-Version von Opera 9.5 “Kestrel” ist noch schneller und überbietet die anderen Browser Firefox, Safari und Internet Explorer um Längen – und das in der ersten Alpha-Version. Einen ausführlichen Performancetest findet man bei nonstropp.org.

Das Testergebnis des Autors

Across the board, Opera Kestrel (a.k.a. Opera 9.5) is already significantly faster than Opera Merlin, and generally out-performs all other browsers tested. Some results, like the full javascript raytracer show that under heavy loads, Opera Kestrel is much more stable and memory efficient. This is important, because Opera uses the same core for all devices, from mobile phones to games consoles to desktop computers. Having a highly efficient core makes for much lower resource consumption and better scaling across devices. Opera Kestrel appears to have set new benchmarks for performance in rendering speed.
