The Best Browser for Web MMO

Test Targets: the top 3 browsers with the biggest market share, namely, IE, Firefox and Chrome

Test Games: We selected three popular games of different genres, the PHP-based Dragon’s Call(http://dc.gamedp.com), the Java-based Runescape(http://runescape.com) and the Flash-based Evony(http://evony.com).

Test Procedures:
1. Test the loading speed of each game’s official site: before testing, we cleared all the history, caches and cookies of three browsers and kept all settings of them basically the same.

Test Tool: www.webwait.com (it’s the most popular website loading speed test site)

Test Method: loaded the pages for consecutive five times every five seconds

Results:

In Summary:
Firefox is fit for the PHP-based Dragon’s Call since its CPU and RAM usage in Firefox is smaller than IE and Chrome, especially during auto-fighting.
IE is fit for the Java-based Runescape.
Chrome is fit for the Flash-based Evony.

How many times did you repeat the tests? I mean yeah, five times at once, but it's no good if it's only at that one time. I'm a little doubtful whether this test has much value beside what more general browser tests already tell us, however I must say IE's speed in this test alone is a little shocking, but could it only appear so because of the test methods?

Well as scientists always say, repeat, repeat, repeat and get more accurate results.
And if using RAM and CPU for the test(s) wouldn't it depend on your computer more or less browser?

But on the other hand, nice :P
