JetStream 3 is a comprehensive benchmark for compute-intensive web applications, developed collaboratively by Apple, Mozilla, and Google.
- •Major update after 6 years since JetStream 2, incorporating modern web patterns and WebAssembly specifications like SIMD and WasmGC
- •Focuses on computationally intensive workloads including games, physics simulations, cryptography, and algorithms, complementing Speedometer 3's UI/DOM focus
- •Compatible with browser engine shells like V8's d8, enabling faster developer iteration and more stable testing with less background noise
- •Completely revamped WebAssembly support introducing 12 new workloads covering toolchains including Rust, Kotlin, Java, Dart, and C#
- •Prioritizes real end-to-end use cases over microbenchmarks with diverse frameworks and libraries to prevent overfitting
•WebAssembly now comprises 15-20% of benchmark suite, up from 7% in JetStream 2, with emphasis on runtime performance over instantiationThis summary was automatically generated by AI based on the original article and may not be fully accurate.
