Microsoft has released a new benchmark to demonstrate the power of Internet Explorer 10



From Ghacks:

The benchmark uses a variety of technologies including HTML5, JavaScript, CSS3, Canvas. When you click the test your browser button on the main page you are taken to a page that displays various animations and plays a rather annoying sound at the same time. A score is displayed at the bottom left that highlights how fast the browser is in the benchmark. If you compare web browsers, you will notice that animations tend to be faster on faster systems.

When you run the benchmark you are probably expecting Google Chrome to take the crown as it is generally seen as the fastest browser on today’s Internet. Chrome users will however face some disappointment when they realize the Internet Explorer is whipping the floor with the browser in that benchmark.
