Firefox 3 runs faster on Linux+Wine than on Linux -- comparative to running on Windows

[Reece Dunn]

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.
