Microsoft used JetStream and Octane 2.0 benchmarks to show that Edge is faster than Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox. Interestingly, both JetStream and Octane were designed by Microsoft rivals, namely Apple and Google, respectively, so the software giant might have a point when trying to prove that Edge really is a fast app.
Octane 2.0 is a benchmark that measures the performance of the JavaScript engine and includes a series of tests that can be performed not only on PCs but also on smartphones and tablets. Workloads and execution profiles of real web applications are measured by Octane, with its developers saying that its goal “is to be a proxy for JavaScript applications.”
JetStream, on the other hand, includes a variety of benchmarks, such as SunSpider 1.0.2 and Octane 2 JavaScript and covers both classical performance improvements and real-world examples.
As you can see, Microsoft Edge topped competition in both of them and Microsoft says that improvements that will be implemented in the coming months, as development of the new browser advances, will make it even faster.
