 Step 1 : Are the JavaScript V8 programs faster? At a glance.

This chart shows 3 comparisons - Time-used, Memory-used and Code-used ~ speed and size.

Each chart bar shows, for one unidentified benchmark, how much the fastest JavaScript V8 program used compared to the fastest Java 7 -server program.

Look at speed another way - look at a box plot of Time-used data.

 Step 2 : Are the JavaScript V8 programs faster? Approximately.

This table shows 3 comparisons - Time-used, Memory-used and Code-used ~ speed and size.

Each table row shows, for one named benchmark, how much the fastest JavaScript V8 program used compared to the fastest Java 7 -server program.

JavaScript V8 used what fraction? used how many times more?
Benchmark	Time	Memory	Code
regex-dna	1/6	1/3	1/3
fannkuch-redux	±	1/3	1/3
spectral-norm	2×	1/2	1/3
binary-trees	3×	±	±
n-body	4×	±	±
fasta	4×	2×	1/2
k-nucleotide	8×	±	1/6
reverse-complement	9×	1/2	1/2
pidigits	51×	±	1/2

JavaScript V8 used what fraction? used how many times more?
Time-used	|-	|---	25%	median	75%	---|	-|
(Elapsed secs)	1/6	1/6	2×	4×	8×	18×	51×

± read the measurements and then read the program source code.

 Step 3 : Are the JavaScript V8 programs faster? Measurements.

This table shows 5 measurements - CPU Time, Elapsed Time, Memory, Code and ≈ CPU Load ~ speed and size.

For each named benchmark, measurements of the fastest JavaScript V8 program are shown for comparison against measurements of the fastest Java 7 -server program.

 Step 4 : Are there other JavaScript V8 programs for these benchmarks?

Remember - those are just the fastest JavaScript V8 and Java 7 -server programs measured on this OS/machine. Check if there are other implementations of these benchmark programs for JavaScript V8.

Maybe one of those other JavaScript V8 programs is fastest on a different OS/machine.

 Step 5 : Are there other faster programs for these benchmarks?

Remember - those are just the fastest JavaScript V8 and Java 7 -server programs measured on this OS/machine. Check if there are faster implementations of these benchmark programs for other programming languages.
