Is this one of those synthetic benchmarks that don't mean much?

It looks to measure a bunch of little JavaScript-driven interactions. It has been around for a while, so I guess it probably measures what it says it measures.

OTOH, you might feel it doesn’t mean much depending on your priorities. I mean, JavaScript is bad anyway. So I guess anyone they cares about performance/security blocks it as much as possible and/or avoids JavaScript heavy sites.

Or, big picture, Firefox wasn’t built by a spying company, so even if Chrome had much better benchmarks switching to Chrome would be a silly thing to do.
