I did not find this objective, the test scope was limited and the sample set of browsers tested were not the latest version. Not that I use IE but why use IE10 when IE11 is available for testing? If you are doing a performance benchmark browser vs browser you will not be taken seriously if your test is not objective. In this case I find the sample set skewed.

In all fairness, the sample set included all "release" builds of the browsers. The vast majority of users only use release builds, so it makes sense to test them when they get released. It also is important because it includes all performance fixes that will possibly go in to the released product.

If I understand correctly, IE11 is only a preview version not the final release.

Correct it is a preview.

If that is the case then I am wrong in my assessment and withdraw my statement.
