FF got js speed improvements with 3.0 (after that alpha) and 3.1 with the JIT, so its comparable right now. We just need a little update. FF memory allocation is far better than WebKit's. Neither JIT AFAIK works on ARM yet...
Are you sure? Latest FF 3.1b2 gives me only 40 points in V8 benchmark on pc (compare with 25 points for latest webkit on n810).

And that's 12 times?

Yes, I know latest WebKit engine is faster. Its just not that faster...

Oh, and there's no ultimate benchmark... I can probably dig up one that will show FF in the lead...

Are you actually reading before posting?

Let me quote that to make myself clear:

No, its not. Maybe it is from MicroB.

MicroB is Mozilla-based browser for Maemo. When we're in N810 forum, what's the difference between "faster than mozilla" and "faster than microb"?

Or you thought 12 times faster than mozilla means mozilla on PC?

Mozilla is a generalization, its the company now, the engine is Gecko. I do not refer to MicroB as Mozilla, since its just a branch, there's also Fennec for instance. I don't refer to FF or Thunderbird as Mozilla too...

You said you were porting... porting from where? Yes, I understood Mozilla for PC. I still understand it that way :P

Anyway, case closed.

Tried this out, really impressed with the speed. So thank you pronvit for this.

The massive libicudata.so.38.1 library can be moved to a [vfat] mmc and symlinked back to /usr/lib fine.
