The reason why we don't see the same thing with PerformanceTests/Parser/html-parser.html, is that html-parser and tiny-innerHTML are totally different benchmarks.

tiny-innerHTML doesn't really even make sense as a benchmark, and was only created to model Peacekeeper (which I believe to be a broken benchmark!).  tiny-innerHTML (and peacekeeper) are just taking very tiny numbers (the time it takes to innerHTML a single text node) and multiplying them by very very large numbers.  In the real world, we don't care if innerHTML of a single text string takes .5 miliseconds or .2 miliseconds. :)  Both are well beyond what any website uses.

html-parser.html on the other hand is a very useful benchmark.
