Some Lively Benchmarks
Thanks to the folks at HPI, we have an informal benchmark for
Lively at...
http://www.lively-kernel.org/repository/webwerkstatt/benchmarks/benchmark2.xhtml
Note: when making comparisons, be sure to frame the window so it
includes the whole scene.
We can now run it on four browsers. Here are the figures I
got:
Browser
Frame rate Max latency cpu
Firefox
3.6.3 12
fps 75/210 ms 120%
Opera
10.52b 21
fps 58 ms
98%
Safari
4.0.5 32
fps 42 ms
80%
Chrome
5.0.342.9b 55 fps
35/60 ms 110%
[2.4 Ghz CoreDuo Mac running
OS X 10.6.3]
Note: I've indicated
where there seem to be GC pauses causing bimodal latency. It's
clear that we need the FrameRateMorph to produce a little plot rather
than just the numbers.
Since I seem to be in a
benchmarking mood, let's check the pure JavaScript speeds with my
tinyBenchmarks for JavaScript

Here are those
figures:
