Shiira, Opera and Flock 0.7.7 benchmarked

By rom

I have been using Safari and Camino after the benchmark I did. Today, I figured that it might be more interesting to add another WebKit-based web browser, Shiira and one of the fastest free web browsers in the market today, Opera. Flock 0.7.7 was just released so I added it to complete the table. I wish that OmniWeb is free so I can add it to my possible candidate for every day web browsing (maybe Omnigroup will give me a free license, who knows?).

So, maybe I’ll give Shiira a spin for a couple of days.
