| benchmark results of its own that showed the upcoming Firefox 3.1 is faster
| at executing JavaScript.

| According to tests run by Brendan Eich, Mozilla's chief technology officer

Firefox 3.1 Alpha 2 reviewed
,----[ Quote ]
| Mozilla has released the second alpha of Shiretoko, the development codename
| of Firefox 3.1. Alpha 2 brings a handful of improvements and new features
| that help advance the web to a more open, standards based stage, while
| tweaking the user experience.
|
| [...]
|
| TraceMonkey, the JavaScript optimization module that brings outstanding
| performance improvements to most web applications is disabled by default in
| this release because of some nasty bugs, but this should change soon.
|
| Also coming in future releases, most likely Beta 1, is geolocation support
| which was added some days ago, and will enable web developers to provide
| content customized to a user specific location.
