Firebug Performance Analysis

First shot at getting some numbers for Firebug performance on Aug 18, 2008. Used Dromaeo.com for gathering raw JavaScript performance metrics in various states of enablement. The methodology used involved creating empty profiles with no extensions installed and a profile with Firebug version 1.2b7. Runs were performed three times and the middle (highest and lowest of the three runs were discarded) total value was used for the comparison chart.

Future analysis will make use of the Standalone Talos framework for analyzing page load times.

Firefox/3.0.1 + Firebug 1.2b7
