> You're welcome to pick pretty much any real world application, and I bet chrome will be ahead.

There are plenty of real-world JS applications where Chrome (well, V8) is much slower than competing browsers. Just browse through V8's bug tracker. For example, here is one I filed,

http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=1630

And I am sure there are even more such issues on the internal (non-public) issue trackers.

Different JS engines tune for different things, we can no longer say that any one of them is simply "faster" than all the rest. It depends on the benchmark.
