A realist here, I'm manipulative only with my foes. My friends and love interests I value them tremendously and I don't resort to such measures when dealing with them.

I'm 100% logical/analytical with machines and 100% emotional/manipulative with people.

Are you suggesting that the remarkable disparity in performance was DOM specific?

Strange because I used a very common method appendChild() and I was under the impression that both browsers had optimized their respective inner workings a long time ago to the point that we should not notice such divergence in performance.

I can attest to that.

I was experimenting a couple of days ago with high duty and extreme DOM nodes crunching and FF's SpiderMoneky blew Chrome's V8 out of the water for 7 - 9 multiples gain in performance measured in time elapsed to complete the operations.

Chrome's V8 engine at this point is so overrated
