Speed Comparison

This graph shows a speed comparison of several different web technologies. The graph was obtained by implementing the same simple algorithm, which calculate prime numbers, in 7 different technologies.

This algorithm is implemented to only use one CPU, even though in Roozz it would actually be possible to use several CPUs if available. If you click on the graph it will take you to a page where the 7 applications are embedded in the same page and you can try them to watch the magnificent speed difference with your own eyes. The source code is also available for download for each of the 7 applications, if you want to understand exactly how we implemented these tests.

  • Time to market
    With only 48 hours needed to convert a title, Roozz is the fastest way to get your product online
  • Minimal investment before revenue
    Roozz requires no work from the publisher and only a very small conversion fee to move your titles online
  • Best performance
    We believe Roozz offer the best tradeoff between performance, cross platform compatability and security compared to any other web technology
