Hi,
For those not monitoring slashdot [1], there is an article [2] that is comparing the Google V8 benchmark on Windows and Linux versions of Firefox 3.
The result of this is that the Windows and Wine runs are pretty close (241 vs 227) when compared to the Linux run (181) and Opera (155).
I wonder what the results are like on Firefox 3.1 with tracemonkey enabled on Windows, Wine and Linux.

Neat!
I've noticed it being a bit faster here as well. I have to use Wine + Firefox to access one of my course's website, because it refuses to work on Ubuntu + Firefox. Even user agent spoofing won't allow it to work...
