Great work so far. Just three comments: - You identify your platform and the user agents you've tested, but since Batik is a Java application it would make sense to also state which JVM version was used.
- Your testing method does not necessarily measure a relevant benchmark. A scripting engine which queues events in such a way that interval and timeout events always are executed in the correct order would get perfect scores, no matter how much time the rendering takes. In the second call to setInterval() you could create a Date object each time and use that for measuring, to account for the possibility that the longer interval might be delayed in accordance with the shorter interval. Furthermore a user agent could switch to rendering only every other frame when the animation speed would otherwise slow down too much. Video player software commonly does this. - Finally I'd like to note that a normal distribution in fact is an absolutely unreasonable assumption for a variable which can not be negative. A gamma distribution is more like it. --- In [email protected], "G.
