function calls: direct vs apply vs call vs bind (v5)

Revision 5 of this benchmark created on


Setup

var f = function(){
      return this;
    };
    
    var that = {
      f: f
    };
    
    var bound = f.bind(that);
    
    var slice = Array.prototype.slice;
    Function.prototype.bind2 = function(_this) {
      var _self = this;
      var args = slice.call(arguments, 1);
      if (args.length === 0) {
        return function() {
          if (arguments.length === 0)
            return _self.call(_this);
          else if (arguments.length > 0)
            return _self.apply(_this, args);       
        }
      }
    
      return function() {
        if (arguments.length === 0)
           return _self.apply(_this, args);
    
        var a2 = args.contact(slice.call(arguments));
        return _self.apply(_this, a2);
      }
    }
    
    var bound2 = f.bind2(that);
    
    var name = 'f';
