Hi Carmelo, Thanks for your draft. Some modifications proposed below.

I propose the following rewrite that puts this in a bit more context: A few months ago, we looked at how well <a href="http://www.w3.org/blog/MWITeam/2008/10/06/performance_tests_and_mobile_browsers">existing performance test suites worked on mobile browsers</a>: they generally worked poorly (if at all), and in many occasions, the limiting factor was the memory required to run these tests. As a follow-up, we have developed a <a href="http://qa-dev.w3.org/2009/memory-test/json.cgi">simple test</a> that allows to determine the maximum amount of memory a browser can dispose of. > The test uses the JavaScript Jason's and the device ability to > handle JSON textual data. (I would drop this - handling JSON is really equivalent to handling Javascript) > The test is interactive and with every successful pass of the > test, it prompts the user to increase the number of JSON's replcae "number of JSON's" by "size of data put in memory". > until an upper limit of 135,000 JSON's is reached. "until an upper limit of 100 MB." > The user also has the ability to decrease the number of JSON's. rather "If the browser fails to fetch a given amount of data, the user can pick a lower target." > The test has two arguments, namely > > * l - length of test > * d - difference (if omitted, half of length), used in the > "binary" search I would drop that... > The test can be executed by following this execution link. The test > source code can be found at the source link. > > The Mobile Test working groups welcome your comments. Any comments > and/or suggestions can be sent to the MWTS mailing list.
