I can't either (without going to a lot of effort) so here is a page
comparing SpiderMonkey and Tamarin from someone with an adobe.com address:
http://www.playercore.com/pub/Tamarin/Avmplus_vs._javascript.htm
The median improvement for Tamarin over SpiderMonkey is better than
2:1 and for Tamarin with type declarations better than 4:1. There are
some tests with much more noticeable results but overall we're not
looking at C or Lisp compiler levels of performance even with type
declarations.
