WPF/E Faster than Flash?
Been busy launching a new product for the last few months (http://www.articulate.com/products/articulate-online.php), but getting some time to hit the blogs and noticed this tidbit:
"Here are results I got testing with 16 balls on my Pentium M 1.7 laptop:
| Browser | DHTML | Flex | Flex (caching) | WPF/e | WPF |
| IE 6.0 | 56 | 61 | 90 | 84 | 99 |
| Firefox 2.0.0.1 | 55 | 52 | 60-90* | 58 | - |
| Opera 9.01 | 94 | 50 | 100 | - | - |
The unexpected is that WPF/e is faster than Flash despite the fact that it’s been in the market for years. I haven’t had a chance to test on Mac yet and tested with IE 7.0 on different machine (it seemed relatively slower but can’t actually compare). "
