Kraken

Kraken is a JavaScript performance benchmark created by Mozilla that measures the speed of several different test cases extracted from real-world applications and libraries.

• Run the benchmark: "git clone https://github.com/mozilla-it/krakenbenchmark.mozilla.org.git" then "cd krakenbenchmark.mozilla.org/hosted && python -m http.server"
• Source code: http://hg.mozilla.org/projects/kraken/

Kraken uses a test harness based on the SunSpider benchmark. Results are reported in milliseconds (lower is better).

The test cases include:

• an implementation of the A* search algorithm
• audio processing using Corban Brook's DSP.js library
• image filtering routines, including code from Jacob Seidelin's Pixastic library.
• JSON parsing, including data from Tinderboxpushlog
• cryptographic routines from the Stanford JavaScript Crypto Library
