One other thing,
I assume that this test was run on a consistent WiFi network,
and that each candidate test was carried out temporally close to one another.

Because it still seems odd, that the browser benchmark would show MicroB 35% faster; but average real world tests shows around 65-72% of the performance of other browsers.

Fantastic job mate!

I also found Opera Mobile really fast. The virtual keyboard also is a huge plus.

It would be nice if you could also put Tear and Google Chrome in those tests (just for the numbers).

Test was run in a fast WiFi network in a short time period. Each test was run twice and there was not big differences between the runs (<1 second).

Order:
MicroB, first run
Fennec, first run
Opera, first run
MicroB, second run
Fennec, second run
Opera, second run

I don't think you even need to try

Firefox Mobile is hardly usable at all and after a little while playing with Opera Mobile even Micro-B pales in comparison.

If you manage to make a steady stream of small bug-fixes releases over the next few weeks, you'll be the heros of all Maemo users

Thanks for the useful comparison.

Opera certainly has the fastest start up of all three. I feel fennec has the most potential though

This is the version number the application manager shows.

Also have a look at the Acid3 browser tests:

Acid3 is a test page from the Web Standards Project that checks how well a web browser follows certain selected elements from web standards, especially relating to the Document Object Model (DOM) and JavaScript.

The full Wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid3

The test itself can be found here: http://acid3.acidtests.org/

Fennec: 7,56
Fennec Jit: 8,35
Opera Mobile: 8,74
MicroB: 12,01

Is highest or lowest result better?

There is not a stupid question. Lower is better as it says after headline.
