I think they comparing browsers with default configuration. I'm sure Firefox with some addons and extra features enabled passes more tests.

    Firefox with one or two extensions and a resonable configuration would be at or near the top of the list. This test only compares defaults which isn't so useful if you are someone that takes the time to setup your browser.
