JS speed - Konq vs. Mozilla

[Vadim Plessky]

I don't have latest Konq from CVS, and testing with KDE 3.0.2 doesn't sound as 
a good idea...
Anyone want to check URL below and statements about Mozilla vs. Konq speed? 
:-)

Yep, http://www.javascript-games.org/articles/local_global_bench.html . It's
 a very simple benchmark, it was a demonstration I used during a discussion
 on my forum about the advantages of using local over global variables in
 tight inner loops with the various browsers. As you can see, Moz was 3 to 16
 times faster than Konq, and NS4 3 to 10 times as fast under linux. I haven't
 tested with the latest version of Moz...
