Since a week now, I am deeply involved in developing the v.2 of the
Domeo annotation tool. Domeo is a combination of
GWT (Google Web Toolkit) and JavaScript. I've been mainly working on the infrastructure and, initially, as it is not much UI work, I was testing only on Chrome (16.0.912.75). Sadly, I've noticed several times that my code was not running fast enough and I started to study alternative ways of performing various tasks.
Then, out of curiosity, I ran the same tests on Firefox and surprise... what was running slow on Chrome was running almost without any latency in FF (6.0.2).
The test consists in 18 steps and each of them is adding the same amount of complexity. Looking at the above figure (milliseconds on the Y-axis) you will easily detect what I am talking about. The difference seems way too big.
