[webkit-qt] QtWebKit and SunSpider Benchmark: - are these expected results

[Osztrogonác Csaba]

Hi,

Jocelyn, have you tried to enable DFG JIT and/or
LLINT on Windows? Both of them can speedup JSC.
But I have no idea how MSVC friendly the LLINT asm is ...

On my Linux box I got the following numbers a week before for SunSpider:
- interpreter (LLINT C-loop):   836 ms
- LLINT (asm):                  480 ms
- JIT:                          305 ms
- LLINT + JIT:                  193 ms
- LLINT + JIT + DFG-JIT:        140 ms

Ossy
