Last week a new Firefox Nightly News was published that outlines that “We’re now apparently beating Chrome on the SunSpider JavaScript benchmark!” The provided numbers now show Firefox easily beating Chrome in this decade-old JavaScript benchmark.

Just from personal experience, FF has seemed overall much snappier than chrome for months now. I think I started to take notice last winter.

I use Edge for work, and it feels way snappier than Chrome has felt in years. Chrome has easily gotten so bloated and slow and most people just don’t notice it.

Firefox still feels quicker than Edge, which is nice.

Is SunSpider still relevant? Isn’t it ancient?
