There is something interesting going on with those Javascript GeekBench benchmarks worth bearing in mind.

Despite Apple now for years destroying everything but the latest high clocked Intel processors running Chrome (all other browsers get hammered), this doesn't really translate into much real world.

Sure, the JavaScript performance is probably excellent, the best maybe, but I feel like they've only optimized for that.

I don't see video encoding or 3d rendering being a strength of Apple processors any time soon, but I guess even on Desktops that's moving and moved to GPUs.
