On what connection speeds did they test it on though, and how many times did they test it? I would like to know if they tested it on DSL/Cable/T3/T1, etc; or just averaged them all out. I just did a search on the same thing on Google and Yahoo and Google was 0.02 seconds faster for me and on another search it was 0.05 seconds faster. I mean this really varies by day of the week, time of day, if school is in and what not as well.

You can't just say google is not as fast, or yahoo is not as fast. First of all, the search makes a difference. If you search for something on google its not going to have the same amount of results that yahoo will, thus affecting the load time. How much traffic there is on each search engine also makes a difference. There are many factors that can cause slowness in an SE but honestly though...who cares. Its .02 seconds faster. Are you kidding me, would anyone really choose one SE over the other because of some time like that?

Heh. As long as both give me the results I want, I'm happy. I couldn't care less if one took up to 23 seconds longer than the other.

What realy matters is the amount of infomation and quality of it that a search engine can provide and as most of us know,google is the best on that.

Google: Results 1 - 10 of about 21,250,000,000 for a. (0.11 seconds)
Yahoo: 1 - 10 of about 10,900,000,000 for a - 0.02 sec.

Sure Yahoo is .09 seconds faster, but Google has almost twice as many results.
