on SunSpider 0.9.1

With build x86 I get 295+ ms...

With build x64 I get 335+ ms

Anyone tried both versions on sunspider? Seems there is a serious regression again.

Gecko/20101122

Just mentioning -> With Opera Alpha 275 ms because with x86 build I'm pretty happy. +20 ms = Nothing

The latest builds are as stable as any I've seen. Thanks, Mozilla, for the continued work on the x64 build. :)

Incremental updates are back. Flash square is playing nice. Java response has been improved. I like it! :D

Yeah, well, unless I'll be able to use LP, I'm not going to use x64. Ever.

German language pack works fine here if the locale is added as a parameter to the firefox link as I answered you here: viewtopic.php?p=9947039#p9947039
I'm writing this with a fully german localized FF4 x64 nightly version.
My primary ffox test system: http://www.sysprofile.de/id20064 (Direct2D: enabled, DirectWrite: enabled, WebGL: ANGLE, GPU Accelerated Windows: Direct3D 10)
Even if my user agent shows Firefox Release version number I'm always using Aurora (updated daily) cloaked by UserAgentSwitcher

Thanks for the heads up, evildust! :D

The links on the "Square" download page have been updated but the text content on the page has not (as you well know ;) )...interesting...

EDIT: The page linked to, above, has now been fully updated.

I've tested Minefield 4.0b10pre 2011-01-12 x86/x64 using SunSpider 0.9.1, V8Bench v6 and Kraken 1.0.
Here are the results.

Each run of every test was done with a clean profile.

Results similar to arewefastyet: 64bit, 32bit.

(Similar in that 64bit is faster on Kraken and slower on the other two.)

I think there is some problem compiling the 64 bit builds at the moment. Until that is fixed they can't create more builds. bug 626480 [Core:General]-"Cannot compile Windows 64-bit since January 12th"
