Not sure if the workload makes a difference.

We would have to make examples of what Computation1 is and what Computation2 is to make a prediction if certain types of workloads will impact the ratio of their performance.

Example:

    s=performance.now();
    r=0;
    for (i=0; i<1000000; i++) r+=1;
    t1=performance.now()-s;

    s=performance.now();
    r=0;
    for (i=0; i<1000000; i++) r+="bladibla".match(/bla/)[0].length;
    t2=performance.now()-s;

    console.log("Ratio: " + t2/t1);

For me, the ratio is consistently larger in Chrome than in Firefox. Which workload would reverse that?
