Jquery each vs Underscore each vs For loops (v15)

Revision 15 of this benchmark created by Rich on

Description

Test with Underscore directly from UnderscoreJS.org, which delivers version 1.6.0, to see if recent changes in _.each() have sped it up. (The DocumentCloud host is serving version 1.5.0 as of the time of this writing.)

Setup

var arr = [];

      arr.push({
        Number: i
      });
    };
    var e = null;
    
    function Named(o, i) {
      e = o;
    };
