   The higher the score, the more accurate and more complete the rendering   
   appeared (subjective).   
      
   The tests with Webrender on that had higher scores than with Webrender   
   off actually performed better visually (IMO).  Unfortunately, many tests   
   with Webrender on failed to render properly.  A couple of those with   
   Webrender on that passed weren't rendered quite as well as with   
   Webrender off.  Obviously, those with very high scores with Webrender   
   off had serious defects or failure with Webrender on.   
      
   Now, I'm wondering if they're just optimizing Firefox for a few types   
   of graphics situations with Webrender, e.g., text and static images,   
   because for every test with Webrender on which had a high score,   
   Webrender on scores were slightly better than Webrender off.  It's just   
   that all the other tests either failed or performed poorly with   
   Webrender on ...
