I wonder if we need to somehow communicate that SunSpider was buggy in this way? I guess not, since the t statistics (or any values derived from them) don't get persisted in the run results that people might save for the future; they're only used when actually comparing two runs.

(In reply to comment #3) > I wonder if we need to somehow communicate that SunSpider was buggy in this way? I guess not, since the t statistics (or any values derived from them) don't get persisted in the run results that people might save for the future; they're only used when actually comparing two runs. In fact, my patch doesn't change the versions of SunSpider hosted on webkit.org, so this is definitely not necessary at the moment. I wonder if we should change those versions, though?

Maciej, do you think we should apply this change to the public versions of SunSpider?
