CPU Test

Run a short single-core and multi-core processor benchmark and get a clear browser-based CPU score.

✓ Instant result✓ No sign-up✓ Runs in your browser
Ready when you are

Close heavy apps, then run the short processor benchmark.

Local only
CPU browser score—ready for a two-pass benchmark

The workload runs locally in browser workers. It does not reveal processor temperature, clock speed or the exact CPU model.

01

How to use this test

  1. Close demanding apps or downloads for a cleaner result.
  2. Select Run CPU benchmark and keep this tab open.
  3. Compare single-core speed, multi-core throughput and your browser score.
02

If something looks wrong

  • Repeat the test after your device has cooled down.
  • Turn off battery saver when comparing maximum performance.
  • Compare results in the same browser because browser engines affect the score.
What the result means

A short JavaScript workload compares single-worker and parallel throughput.

The benchmark runs a fixed mix of integer multiplication, bitwise operations and square roots in Web Workers. One pass measures a single worker for about 900 milliseconds; another uses up to eight workers for about 1,050 milliseconds. Completed inner-loop iterations per second and the published formula produce a compact browser score.

The result measures how this browser executes this particular workload at this moment. CPU architecture, clock behavior, browser engine, worker scheduling, power mode, thermal limits and background activity all contribute. Repeat under controlled conditions before comparing a change.

Reading the signal

Use the two throughput figures to understand the score.

Single-worker rate

This reflects one worker's JavaScript workload iterations per second and is often relevant to web tasks that cannot spread evenly across cores.

Parallel rate

This reflects combined workload iterations across the browser-selected worker count, capped at eight to keep the test short and comparable.

Browser score

The rounded score equals single-worker iterations per second divided by 100,000 plus parallel iterations per second divided by 250,000.

Run-to-run change

A small change is normal. Sustained large differences under the same conditions can point to power, heat or competing workloads.

Browser-test limits

This is not a comprehensive processor benchmark. It does not measure clock speed, temperature, energy use, native-code performance, every instruction type or application performance, and it should not be compared directly with scores from other benchmark products.

Troubleshooting

From symptom to next step.

What you seeLikely causeWhat to try
Score is much lower than an earlier runBattery mode, thermal throttling, a busy tab or another application may be taking CPU time.Connect power if appropriate, let the device cool, close heavy work and compare the middle result from three fresh runs.
Parallel gain is smallThe browser exposes few logical threads, the device has limited cores or other work is competing for them.Check the reported worker count, close background tasks and compare within the same browser rather than assuming a hardware fault.
Result differs by browserJavaScript engines and worker scheduling optimize the fixed workload differently.Use one browser version for before-and-after comparisons or report the browser alongside the score.

Quick answers

Good to know.

Is this a real CPU benchmark?+

It is a real timed JavaScript workload executed in isolated browser workers. It is useful for comparing the same device and browser, but it is not a replacement for a native hardware benchmark.

Can this test identify my exact processor?+

No. Browsers expose the number of available logical processors but normally hide the exact CPU model, clock speed and temperature for privacy.

Why does my CPU score change?+

Temperature, battery mode, background apps, browser version and power management can all change short benchmark results.

Does a higher CPU score always mean a faster computer?+

It means higher throughput in this short browser workload. Real applications use different code, graphics, memory and storage, so their ranking can differ.

Why is the worker count capped at eight?+

The cap limits heat and keeps the short test more comparable on machines with very different logical-thread counts.

Can the test damage or overheat my CPU?+

The workload is brief and uses normal browser code, but any demanding task can raise activity temporarily. Stop if the device behaves abnormally and avoid repeated continuous runs.
