Google Maps based benchmark for browsers?

Anyone knows if there is any benchmark done to browsers in a "google maps" test suite?

Google Maps with lots of markers and data can really get slow so maybe this was an interesting "real world" benchmark that stresses javascript / DOM management in browsers :)

You may want to consider the benchmark data for the tests carried out in this article:

Chrome and Safari end up on top in 5 out of 6 tests, while IE8 ranks last for all tests except one. Make sure to check the above mentioned article for the details of each test.
