Fastest array loops in Javascript (v78)

Revision 78 of this benchmark created on

Setup

// Populate the base array
    var arr = [];
    for (var i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {
      arr[i] = Math.random() + 1;
    }
  var len= arr.length;
    function someFn(ix) {
      return ix * 5 + 1 / 3 * 8;
    }
