FF1:- 12 14 9 11* 33 17 9 *Mine Chrome:- 90 155 48 28* 646 252 160 *Mine Oh, what a shock, mine is _fastest_. Does that mean _slowest_ in your language? And, of course, these tests must be run multiple times in a variety of environments to indicate anything of substance. Still, it sure doesn't look like "one of the slowest" from the early returns. ;)
From: jdalton on 9 Feb 2010 15:50 Hi David, Heh, You have it backwards (larger number is better), smaller is worse, that means your methods executed slower than anyone else. Congratulations.

Classic David Mark. My approach is _not_ slow. In contrast, it is blazing fast compared to the "majors" in some environements and comparable in others. You just make this stuff up as you go along? Saying "it's slow" over and over in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary is silly. > > > I haven't tried your link. Is that a joke, or did you really create a > > tribute page?

You are just full of misconceptions. And don't expect a "jdalton" tribute page any time soon. ;)

I have reason to doubt the veracity of your tests, especially if QSA is involved. All of the other incarnations of SlickSpeed are BS, but yours is gold? I doubt it. :) > smaller is worse, that means your methods executed slower than anyone > else. But, assuming your tests make sense, that isn't what the data indicated at all, is it? I would highlight that if you had bothered to quote me. :( |
