It doesn’t look like bragging to me. The only comment Phronix has from a Firefox person is:

> We’re now apparently beating Chrome on the SunSpider JavaScript benchmark!

“Apparently” seems to indicate that it isn’t something they are putting a ton of stock in.

I think that's what you'd call a "humble brag".

It would only be a humble brag if it was something that the Firefox developers thought others would be impressed by. It's a single line item on their internal dev blog, the bar for entry is not exactly high.
