Performance of Google chrome vs nodejs (v8)?

Question

Example

     console.time("Test");
     for(var i=0; i         


        

Answer 1

It's far from being as dramatic now, but I did get 2x boost from 5.417ms down to 2ms on your test. I had near absolute same values on Node and Chrome when I used a larger loop and a function wrap.

(function(){
console.time("Test");
for(var i=0; i <10000000000; i +=1 ){
     // loop around
}
console.timeEnd("Test");
}).call(this);
