Comment (by cohosh):
I did some speed tests at https://test.webrtc.org
On Chrome:
{{{
[ OK ] Transmitting at 1305.853 kbps.
[ OK ] Transmitting at 1335.296 kbps.
[ OK ] Transmitting at 1222.687 kbps.
[ OK ] Transmitting at 1376.256 kbps.
[ OK ] Transmitting at 1388.475 kbps.
[ OK ] Total transmitted: 6676.48 kilo-bits in 5.032 seconds
}}}
That's 163 KB/s, 167KB/s, 153 KB/s, 172 KB/s, 174 KB/s.
On Firefox:
{{{
[ OK ] Transmitting at 449.757 kbps.
[ OK ] Transmitting at 445.658 kbps.
[ OK ] Transmitting at 261.606 kbps.
[ OK ] Transmitting at 74.813 kbps.
[ OK ] Total transmitted: 1433.6 kilo-bits in 5.039 seconds.
}}}
That's 56 KB/s, 57 KB/s, 32 KB/s, 9 KB/s.
I performed a few tests to check if these results are representative and
they seem to be.
So even the Firefox version of WebRTC is much slower than the Chrome
version. I wonder if there's something special Chrome has figured out and
is doing to get around an issue with Windows.
