缓慢的浏览体验可能会妨碍您的任务，尤其是当您使用在其上运行应用程序的网站时。而现在大部分应用都向云计算平台迈进，需要良好的浏览体验。除了Internet Explorer、Firefox、Chrome和Opera之外，还有其他几种可用于 Windows 10/8/7 的替代浏览器。(alternative browsers)
虽然大多数使用基于个人经验、提供的功能或旧习惯的浏览器，但你们中的极客可能想要测试您的浏览器在Internet上的实际性能有多好。为了达到这个目标，您可以使用免费的浏览器基准测试和速度测试工具(free browser benchmark & speed test tools)来比较不同浏览器的性能。基准测试工具在(Benchmarking)Javascript、HTML5和其他测试等浏览器上运行多项测试。让我们看一些在线提供的浏览器性能基准测试。
浏览器速度在线测试工具
以下是一些最好的浏览器速度测试，可以告诉您浏览器的性能：
- 维和人员
- 精简版
- 辛烷值
- 卓玛欧
- 速度战
- HTML 5 测试
- 酸 3
- 浏览器标记
- 太阳蜘蛛。
1] 维和人员
Peacekeeper是最广泛使用的浏览器基准测试工具之一。毫不奇怪，它来自Futuremark ，它是 3DMark 和(Futuremark)PCMark等基准测试工具的发明者。除了(Apart)执行JavaScript基准测试外，Peacekeeper在测试时还使用HTML 5画布和视频。Peacekeeper提供特定浏览器速度的整体视图；它执行大约 5 分钟的测试，一旦完成，它就会为每个结果给出一个基准数字。
2] 精简版
Lite Brite是Microsoft的基准测试工具。它旨在通过使用数十种HTML(HTML)、CSS和JavaScript功能点亮您的屏幕来衡量浏览器的性能。当您开始测试时，您会看到一个 Lite-Brite 玩具点亮了浏览器的徽标。这种现代的点亮技术虽然可以衡量浏览器的性能。
3]辛烷值
Octane 2.0是 Octane 的最新版本，它是(Octane)Google的浏览器基准。基准测试衡量JavaScript引擎的性能。为了测试性能，基准测试运行了一套适用于最新和复杂 Web 应用程序的测试。Octane主要测量在大型现实世界 Web 应用程序中发现的JavaScript代码的性能，这些代码在现代桌面和移动浏览器上运行。(JavaScript)
4] 卓玛欧
Dromaeo是 Mozilla 的基于SunSpider测试的基准测试套件。SunSpider也是一个基准测试套件，用于测量使用JavaScript执行的任务的JavaScript性能。这些任务包括JavaScript(JavaScript)的当前和近期相关使用，例如文本操作和加密。Dromaeo可能需要相当长的时间进行测量。但是，它会显示有关每个测试任务的非常详细的信息。
5]速度战
Speed-battle是一项免费的在线测试，用于测量浏览器速度和计算机性能。它提供了以下问题的答案。
- 我的电脑上哪个(Which)浏览器在完成 SPEED-BATTLE 测试任务时最快？
- 使用相同的计算机和浏览器版本时，哪个(Which)操作系统更快？
- 使用相同的操作系统和浏览器时，哪台计算机更快？
Speed-battle的测试成绩为硬件和软件的性能提供了参考值。
6] HTML 5 测试
HTML 5 测试(Test)表明您的浏览器很好地支持即将到来的HTML5标准和相关规范。HTML 5 测试(Test)分数是通过测试HTML5的许多新特性来计算的。每个功能都值得一分或多分。除了主要的HTML5规范和W3C HTML 工作组(W3C HTML Working Group)创建的其他规范外，该测试还奖励支持相关草案和规范的分数。
每当更新规范时，都会更新HTML 5测试。(HTML 5 )如果某些功能被删除，它们也会从测试中删除，并创建更新的测试。浏览器可以得分的最高分是 555。
7]酸3
Acid3 test是由“The Web Standards Project”开发的浏览器基准测试应用程序。该基准测试 Web 浏览器是否符合DOM（文档对象模型(Document Object Model)）、JavaScript和各种其他 Web 标准。酸 3(Acid 3)的典型识别是它在执行测试后显示的结果。
其余结果显示为逐渐增加的计数器，由彩色矩形表示。每个矩形表示特定测试的完成。最后，当执行所有测试时，图表显示 100/100 作为结果；当然，如果一切都好的话。
8]浏览器标记
Browsermark 2.1是同名的浏览器基准测试的下一个改进版本，即Browsermark。该基准测试应用程序由Finish软件(Finish)开发公司Rightware开发。(Rightware)该应用程序专注于不同测试组的实际性能测量，例如CSS、DOM、Graphics、JavaScript和JavaScript框架。
Browsermark 2.1测试浏览器的一致性，它告诉浏览器在CSS3和HTML5支持测试中的表现如何。它测试其他因素，例如屏幕调整能力、页面加载能力、支持现代网站开发技术的能力和浏览器的整体性能。
9]太阳蜘蛛
SunSpider也是一个流行的JavaScript基准测试应用程序。但是，SunSpider仅测试核心JavaScript语言，不测试DOM或其他浏览器API(APIs)。那是因为它是为了比较不同的浏览器和同一浏览器的不同版本而构建的。SunSpider执行现实世界的测试，重点关注开发人员在使用(SunSpider)JavaScript时需要解决的问题。
浏览器的性能可能会因不同的基准测试工具而异，因为它不仅取决于操作系统，还取决于硬件插件。

Best free Browser speed & performance online test tools
A slow browsing experience could hamper your tasks, especially when you use webѕіtes that run applications on them. And now with moѕt applications moving towards thе cloud computing platform, it is neсeѕsary to have a good browsing experience. Apart from Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome and Opera, there are severаl other alternative browsers available for Windows 10/8/7.
While most of use select browsers based on personal experiences, features offered or old habits, the geeks among you may want to test how good your browser is actually performing on the Internet. To achieve this aim, you could make use of free browser benchmark & speed test tools to compare the performance of different browsers. Benchmarking tools run several tests on browsers like Javascript, HTML5 and other tests. Let’s look at a few browser performance benchmark tests being offered online.
Browser Speed Online Test Tools
Here are some of the best browser speed tests that will tell you how your browser performs:
- Peacekeeper
- Lite Brite
- Octane
- Dromaeo
- Speed-battle
- HTML 5 TEST
- Acid 3
- Browsermark
- SunSpider.
1] Peacekeeper
Peacekeeper is one of the most widely used benchmark tools for browsers. Not surprisingly, it comes from the Futuremark, the inventors of benchmarking tools such as 3DMark and PCMark. Apart from performing a JavaScript benchmark, Peacekeeper makes use of HTML 5 canvas and video while testing. Peacekeeper gives an overall view of how fast a particular browser is; It performs a test for about 5 mins and once completed it gives out a benchmark number for each result.
2] Lite Brite
Lite Brite is the benchmark tool from Microsoft. It is designed to measure the performance of your browser by lighting up your screen with dozens of HTML, CSS and JavaScript features. When you start the test you will see a Lite-Brite toy lighting up the logo of the browser. This modern lighting up technique, though measures the performance of your browser.
3] Octane
Octane 2.0 is the latest version of Octane, a browser benchmark by Google. The benchmark measures the JavaScript engine’s performance. For testing the performance, the benchmark runs a suite of tests that are suitable for the latest and complex web applications. Octane mainly measures the performance of JavaScript code that is found in huge sized real-world web applications and which runs on modern desktop and mobile browsers.
4] Dromaeo
Dromaeo is Mozilla’s benchmarking test suite that is based on SunSpider tests. SunSpider is also a benchmarking suite that measures JavaScript performance on tasks performed using JavaScript. These tasks include current as well as near-future relevant use of JavaScript like text manipulation and encryption. Dromaeo may take a considerable time for measurement. However, it displays very detailed information about every single test task.
5] Speed-battle
Speed-battle is a free online test for measuring browser speed and computer performance. It provides an answer to the following questions.
- Which browser is on my computer fastest in completing the SPEED-BATTLE test tasks?
- Which operating system is faster when using the same computer and browser version?
- Which computer is faster when using the same operating system and browser?
The test score of Speed-battle provides reference values for the performance of hardware and software.
6] HTML 5 TEST
HTML 5 Test gives an indication of well your browser supports the upcoming HTML5 standard and related specification. The HTML 5 Test score is calculated by testing for the many new features of HTML5. Each feature is worth one or more points. Apart from the main HTML5 specification and other specifications created by the W3C HTML Working Group, this test also awards points for supporting related drafts and specifications.
The HTML 5 test is updated whenever the specification is updated. In case some features are removed, they get deleted from the test also and newer tests are created. The maximum score that a browser can score is 555.
7] Acid 3
Acid3 test is a browser benchmarking application developed by ‘The Web Standards Project’. The benchmark tests the web browser’s compliance with DOM (Document Object Model), JavaScript and various other web standards. The typical identification of Acid 3 is the result it displays after the test is performed.
The rest results are displayed as a gradually increasing counter that is represented by colored rectangles. Each rectangle indicated the completion of a particular test. Finally, when all tests are performed, the graph shows 100/100 as the results; of course, if everything is fine.
8] Browsermark
Browsermark 2.1 is the next and more improved version of the browser benchmark with the same name i.e. Browsermark. This benchmarking application is developed by Rightware, a Finish software development company. The application focuses on real-life performance measurement for different test groups such as CSS, DOM, Graphics, JavaScript and JavaScript frameworks.
Browsermark 2.1 tests browser’s conformance in which it tells how well the browser did on CSS3 and in HTML5 support tests. It tests other factors such as screen resizing ability, page loading ability, ability to support modern website development techniques and overall performance of the browser.
9] SunSpider
SunSpider is also a popular JavaScript benchmarking application. However, SunSpider tests only the core JavaScript language and it does not test DOM or other browsers APIs. That’s because it is built to compare different browsers with each other and different versions of the same browser. SunSpider performs the real world test that focuses on the problems developers need to tackle when working with JavaScript.
The performance of browsers is likely to vary across different benchmark test tools, as it is not only dependent on the operating system, but also on the hardware plugins.
Other free online browser speed test tools:
- Speed-Battle is a free online browser speed test
- JetStream is a JavaScript benchmark suite focused on the most advanced web applications.
- Dromaeo is Mozilla JavaScript performance test suite.
