Loops (v128)

Revision 128 of this benchmark created by ASM on

Description

Array size = 40; Removed some obscure cases which were not faster on any of the platforms

Setup

var arr = [];
    var obj = {};
    for( var i = 0; i < 40; i++ ) {
        arr[ i ] = i+1;
        obj[ i ] = i+1;
    }
    
    // to let IE7 && other old browsers run this as well
    if (!Array.prototype.forEach)
    {
      Array.prototype.forEach = function(fun)
      {
        var len = this.length;
        for (var i = 0; i < len; ++i)
            fun(this[i]);
      };
    }
