Over the last few weeks, I've been doing some performance testing of the SVG display tools I currently have access to. While I don't have conclusive results yet, some of my results have surprised me.
The last time I tried anything close to this, browser results were pretty bad. But the current results are much better than expected. I'm showing the 1.8 pre-release of Squiggle (Batik) is by far the fastest (by a factor of 2 to 4) for the kinds of tests I'm doing. What I found really surprising is that Firefox 3.03 is currently a little faster than Opera 9.6 in my tests. I'm running my tests on a 1.66 GHz Core 2 Duo running Linux. The SVG files I'm testing are instrumented versions of http://anomaly.org/wade/projects/svgplay/wuse.svg and http://anomaly.org/wade/projects/instruments/Instruments.svg I'm currently trying to generate something resembling a reasonable summary of the information including documenting my methodology and tools. I'd also like to add more display applications to the mix to get more of an idea of relative performance. (Unfortunately, Chrome is still not available under Linux.<shrug/>) G.
