Chrome stable releases are every 6 weeks.

The releases are overlapped though, so we are testing v n+1 in beta while v n is in stable, and we are starting new feature development for v n+2 while v n is in stable.

Chrome 8 just went stable, and we've just started testing Chrome 9.

So crankshaft will either be 6 weeks from today (if it's in 9), or 12 weeks from now (if it's in 10).

I don't think it's been announced which it's targeted for.

Ah, ok. I guess I misread the release calendar. Thanks for the clarification :).

> I don't think it's been announced which it's targeted for.

According to the perf comparison chart on the blog, it's in Chrome 10. Also, it's mentioned that Crankshaft is available in the canary build, which is currently at 10 too.

12 weeks then. I sometimes revert back to FF for the plugins, but I always come back to Chrome for the perf :).
