Hmmm, I wonder about the reliability of the information, or perhaps reliability is not the right word, maybe completeness would be better.

I don't know who Garann is, and I don't use Javascript templating, and yet just by playing with the options on the page I was able to predict that Garann is using with dot.js. A quick Google then confirmed the hypothesis, which makes me think that the options that are available are aimed quite specifically at Garann's use case, and might not be generally applicable.

Nicely put together :) Might want to hide a feature if the selection makes no difference (re-show when it does have potential to make a difference).

Example: Both, Entirety, Fastest, Then it doesn't matter if you say precompiled yes or no.

It's missing DustJS, which is IMO a strong contender that does well in benchmarks http://linkedin.github.io/dustjs/ * Works in the browser and on the server * Pretty fast * logic-less but with a helpers API for when you need more power * pre-compiles templates * has template partials

Came to say the same. Dust is a bit confusing and complex at times but overall is excellent.
