Comment #2 on issue 710 by n.nethercote: v8-crypto.js is non-deterministic
http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=710
Thanks for the info! I've been running the version that is within SunSpider
(http://svn.webkit.org/repository/webkit/trunk/SunSpider/tests/v8-v4).
Perhaps it
doesn't overwrite Math.random(), in which case I should probably file a bug
with Webkit.
I've been testing with Mozilla's TraceMonkey and the amount of code that is
trace-compiled varies significantly (eg. by up to 20%) from run to run. I
tried
replacing the random() calls with a deterministic value sequence and the
variation
disappeared.
