On the other hand, I looked a bit into the test code, and test 69 waits for some resources to download. This means the test is biased by how close the test machine is to acidtests.org, how fast the connection is, and whether you get to access the server on one of its good or less good days. This, coupled with the acid3 test author's specification of the HW reference platforms (first of all, IMO there's an issue with different HW platforms for different browsers), make me think that a notice on the wiki page saying that there are serious issues regarding the performance statements would be appropriate. I know I may be countered with the so often repeated statement that this page is about acid3 restults, not about discussing potential issues with acid3. But IMO wikipedia's purpose and goal is to inform and educate readers. Leaving such a comment out, given the issues, is IMO manipulation of the truth, in two ways: first of all, by not noting the issues related to performance which the acid3 test has, readers are led to believe there are none, second, again, by not noting those issues, browsers favored by the very generous specification of the reference hardware are made to look better than other browsers, even if the resulting classification is debatable.
