Can you post the output of https://tmthrgd.github.io/mpw-js/test/?

[leemeichin]

Sure! It looks like there's an error with the test itself:

[tmthrgd]

@leemachin That error shouldn't have prevented the test suite from functioning, but either way, it has now been fixed (see #9). Would you mind running the test suite again for me?

was curious to help and check in my dual core W10-64 pro 1809 system.

MS Edge 44.17763.1.0 / EdgeHTML 18.17763 completely fails right away.
GC 72.0.3626.81 (64-bit) passes 23sec.
Fx 60.5.0esr (64-bit) passes 2min23sec.

(seems like Fx doesn't soak up the cpu power until almost the end).

@jmichael2497 Thanks for the update. Is there any error message from the failure or in the debug console?

@jmichael2497 (From memory): The slowdown in Firefox is caused by missing support for the right PBKDF2 algorithm which is instead done partly in JavaScript.

@jmichael2497 Thanks for the update. Is there any error message from the failure or in the debug console?

sorry forgot to specify all test lines just end basically with similar variable timings of

"Failed; [object Object] (after 601.4000000000001ms)"

and a quick peek through the built in dev tools did not show any errors or warnings in the console.

i would generally recommend folks use a clean and locked down browser like fx or gc anyway (shrug).

for reference on same dual core W10-64 pro 21H2 system:

• MS 109.0.1518.78 passes after almost 15.0min
• GC 109.0.5414.120 passes after almost 1.5min
• Fx 102.7.0esr passes after almost 1.5min
