I have different results:
Swift ~450 ms
Opera 8.54 ~550 ms
Opera 9.20 ~650 ms
Firefox 2.0 ~1600 ms
IE 7 ~4000 ms

It seems like you have a faster machine, probably with the SSE2 instructions set. Give it to me p:


But remember that Swift is only version 0.2 at this moment. Lots can happen. I do hope they fix quite a few things like the "scroll artifact". It doesn't seem to be scrolling at all, but rather jump and dance on it's own. But I am confident they will as well as porting the rest of the code.

I'm pretty shure that when they add to Swift some "necessary fat" it will run test little slower than now. :D

It usually does. It might be just the impression but Firebird felt lighter than Firefox too. But then again, it might just have been the window handling making that impression because of less added chrome.

Lets not take sorrows upfront. For now in it's current state, I would use Opera over Swift any day. It's not even beta.
