Here are my results (Win7 64b, Core2 Duo 2.4 GHz):

  Minefield 4 b6           9737.7ms
  Opera 10.62             14490.8ms
  Chrome 7.0.517.5 dev    18375.4ms
  Firefox 4 Beta 5        21721.1ms
  Safari 5.0              22168.6ms 
  Firefox 3.6.9           30053.3ms
  Explorer 9 PP4          64817.2ms
Though, usual caveat, it's kind of expected that the creator of the benchmark will perform the best (see my older comments on browser benchmarks [1][2]).

What's probably more interesting is the order of other browsers (for which this benchmark should be less tuned) - again Opera performed very well (and better than Chrome).

My results (OSX 10.6, Core2 Duo 2.4GHz)

    Safari 5            13939.9ms +/- 1.6%
    Chrome 6.0.472.55   19155.2ms +/- 1.3%
    Firefox 3.6.4       23567.1ms +/- 2.8%
Yeah, on my MacBook Pro (OS X 10.6, Core i5 2.4GHz) I got

  Safari 5               11018.2ms +/- 0.3%
  Chrome 6.0.472.55      15342.7ms +/- 1.0%
  Firefox 3.6.8          18917.6ms +/- 0.1%
Interesting (but maybe not surprising) to see that Safari is consistently being reported as faster than Chrome on OS X, but not on Windows.
My iMac with Safari 5 was a little more 14ms...
