How Fast Is Your Browser?

Click Start to run a suite of CPU computation tests including math operations, array sorting, and string manipulation. See individual and composite scores for your browser's performance.

This benchmark runs three CPU-intensive tasks — trigonometric math, 100K-element array sorting, and string regex manipulation — and produces a composite operations-per-second score.

Modern desktop browsers typically score 50,000–150,000; mobile devices score 10,000–60,000 depending on CPU and JavaScript engine.

What Do Your Results Mean?

Result Range Meaning
Good Score above 50,000 Your browser and CPU handle compute-heavy web apps and complex JavaScript efficiently.
Warning Score 10,000–50,000 Average performance. Adequate for most websites but may slow down on heavy web applications.
Bad Score below 10,000 Below average CPU performance in browser. Close background apps, update your browser, or check for thermal throttling.

Common Issues and How to Fix Them

Score is much lower than expected for your CPU

Close all other tabs and applications during the test. Ensure your device is plugged in (battery saver throttles CPU) and your browser is up to date.

Scores differ significantly between browsers

Each browser uses a different JavaScript engine (V8 in Chrome, SpiderMonkey in Firefox, JavaScriptCore in Safari) with different optimization strategies. This is expected behavior.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the browser benchmark test?

It runs three CPU-intensive tasks: mathematical operations (trig, sqrt), array sorting (100K elements), and string manipulation (concatenation, regex). Each is scored individually.

What is a good benchmark score?

Scores depend on CPU and browser. Modern desktops typically score 50,000-150,000. Mobile devices score 10,000-60,000. Higher is better.

Why do scores differ between browsers?

Each browser has different JavaScript engines (V8, SpiderMonkey, JavaScriptCore) with different optimization strategies, causing score variations.

Does this test affect my computer?

The test briefly uses CPU at high load for a few seconds. It won't damage anything and stops automatically when complete.
