Thought I’d never see the day when Firefox would match Chrome on Speedometer.

There’s also a few other benchmarks got a sizable boost. https://arewefastyet.com/

    @Molecular0079 You are wrong. Synthetic benchmarks do not represent the normal daily usage of users. I did not say the results are wrong and could not help in finding slow parts. But they are not indicative to what browser is faster than the other, because no single benchmark can answer than question. I think you don’t get what I’m saying here. As I said, I think we won’t get much farther than this. My statements are all correct.

      The “synthetic benchmark” that OP mentions is simply a to-do list app written using different web frameworks, populated with some Todo items and then reloaded. This is done many times and then measured. I don’t know about you, but this seems pretty real world usecase to me.

      because no single benchmark can answer than question.

      Of course not, but a sum of many of what you call “synthetic” benchmarks will give an indication of which browser is faster.
