Performance - Google Chrome - Mozilla Kraken
Benchmarks: Google Chrome - Mozilla Kraken Browser
We added this benchmark as it is an underestimated thing, it's what we do all the time on the PC hence we are introducing a proper browser performance test. The Mozilla Kraken-browser benchmark applies multiple complex calculations based on javascripts. This will bring you a good overview of browser performance. We test with the latest iteration of Google Chrome.
Right after I finished up testing, I realized... perhaps less memory latency would be favored over faster memory bandwidth, hence I also included the Local memory mode. I won't be doing that again for the application tests though, as the charts tend to get very confusing to read, but sure, in certain scenarios the distributed versus local memory mode setup can make a bit of a difference.
Note: Chrome updated to build 59 and seems to have gotten slower. This is why Threadripper seems slower. This benchmark as such needs an update.
