How Do Browsers Scale?
An anonymous reader writes "Benchmarking browsers is a somewhat silly exercise, since scores cannot be replicated on a variety of hardware, and it is not uncommon for even the same system to fail to replicate benchmarks scores, especially in JavaScript tests in two succeeding runs. The guys over at ConceivablyTech have an interesting approach, running browsers through multiple tests on different sets of hardware (including an Android smartphone), and showing the scaling differences between browsers when you are using a dual-core netbook on the low-end and a six-core desktop on the high-end. They also tested HTML5 on Firefox mobile and found the browser has better HTML5 support than the current Firefox 4 Beta 6."
What makes you think that somebody who remembers what gopher was would be young? What makes you think that someone who thinks that mixing content with code is a bad idea is of lower intelligence?
If these two posts were all that I were to go on, then I'd be forced to conclude that the GP is older and more intelligent than you. Your UIDs only help to reinforce my conclusion.

tl;td;dr (too long, too drunk, didn't read)
your point is invalid.

It's a shame they didn't bother to mention what the coding flaw is. If I were to hazard a guess it would be that the flaw is that the test is written to make Safari look good, not Chrome. The V8 benchmark fixes this.
