Holiday fun from the IE team: HTML5+CSS3+JS benchmarks with Rudolph the Reindeer

Posted: (EET/GMT+2)

 

Microsoft's IE team has put up some holiday cheer called Holiday Lites: this is a HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript benchmark, that plays some jingle tunes and demonstrates the performance of IE11 or the browser of your choice. The benchmark itself slowly draws Rudolph the Reindeer onto the screen. On my laptop, Rudolph is drawn on the screen with IE11 in a little above three seconds, whereas Google Chrome 31 does the same drawing in just over 31 seconds.

Check it out! :-)
