   MotionMark 1.1   71.15     6.84   
   Multiply          1.00     1.00   
   Canvas Arcs     344.58     1.00   
   Leaves           73.29   122.67   
   Paths          1367.65     3.00   
   Canvas Lines    993.32     1.00   
   Focus            21.97    24.50   
   Images           37.61     4.00   
   Design           30.19     5.56   
   Suits            54.57   163.36   
      
   They restored and improved their "Leaves" performance for webrender.   
   They improved their "Suits" performance. And, "Focus" improved a bit.   
   Other tests have slight improvements and slight declines.  Now, I'm   
   wondering if only "Leaves" and "Suits" are what they're focused upon?   
   Or, if "Focus" is also a base requirement, as "Focus" test mostly   
   matches hardware performance, but the other two now outperform hardware.

   Why is it that the most liberal tech companies become the most
