The fastest browser!
Friday, July 13, 2007 3:34:26 AM
I just bumped into a comparison of Javascript CSS selector libraries at http://extjs.com/blog/2007/07/10/css-selectors-speed-myths/ . The whole point of the article wasn't to compare browsers, but to compare the speed of various library implementations in different browsers, and to determine which library was fastest overall.
As I read the article, one browser was mentioned several times - Firefox. No other browser was mentioned, other than by phrases like "Performance in other browsers drops significantly".
At the end is a table cross-referencing library runtimes and browsers. One browser was consistently the fastest among all other browsers. This fastest browser wasn't even mentioned once in an article devoted to analysing how fast libraries and browsers are.
That fastest browser was Opera!

But he could of course have mentioned it in his text summary...
