Division vs bit right shift (v5)

Revision 5 of this benchmark created on

Description

Right shift one mask is same as divide by 2 on integers. A right shift operation is much faster than a division op. Most static compilers do this optimization.

Setup

var x = 100;
    var y = 100;

Test runner

Ready to run.
