One thing that these benchmarks don't capture is user perceived latency. A lot of work went into this for 57, making it feel faster, regardless of what a microbenchmark may pick up.

Of course, work is going into making those numbers better too, but I don't think that this kind of benchmarking tells the whole story.

(Also, these mostly seem to be benching JavaScript performance? That's certainly not the whole story of 57.)
