I am running the latest TenFourFox, 10.0.4. Got a score of 327 plus 9

Looking at the what I think are the important stuff, TenFourFox seems
to not pass the following major items.
Some audio codecs
About 1/2 of the form inputs (56/108)
No Microdata, whatever that is
Complete Security failure 0/15
Web GL 9/25 mostly for 3D context
Files (FileSystem API failed)
Local Multimedia Access the webcam failed
I don't have one so don't know if that is the reason
for failing, but isn't this a good thing to not give browsers direct
access to webcams?
Web Notifications failed
I don't mind constructive criticism, but the real Firefox doesn't
have any
of these either (except WebGL, which Mozilla does not support on
10.4 or
10.5), and neither do many other browsers. If people are going to
evaluate
features, comparing them against a realistic benchmark is always
ideal.
Cameron,
Please understand that the above was not meant as a criticism. It was
simply a report on the test results for TenFourFox that Bruce
wondered about. I did not even look at the test page results for
other browsers,
Looking at the test results, TenFourFox holds its' own very well,
even beating Safari 5.1 by a little and trouncing IE 9, which only
scored 138. It even scores better than the beta of IE 10.
