Can I ask how you came up with the timings for your graphs and data?
[Info] Wierdo124's Browser Wars Test!
Hey guys. Today i took the liberty to test out two browsers speeds in many fashions. I've been using IE8 lately so i can get a better feel. I do like my firefox addons, but such is life. Anyway. This post will tell you about the speeds of Firefox 3.5 and IE8.
The setup:
Windows 7 Professional 64 bit
Gigabyte P35 DS3L
Core 2 Duo E8400
4GB OCZ Fatal1ty
XFX GTX260
CCleaner was ran before the tests so everything was clean. Test were ran while GPU folding, with task manager reporting 67 processes, with 37% memory usage. Firefox did have addons, but ABP was DISABLED so that wouldn't interfere.
Lets start off with the Acid3 Test.

Firefox:

Internet Explorer 8

We obviously have a clear winner there.
It may change though with the page loading/starting results. Lets take a look:
