prototype vs closures (v96)

Revision 96 of this benchmark created by Maxi S. on

Setup

function Person1(name) {
  	this.name = name;
  }
  
  Person1.prototype.get_name = function() {
  	return this.name;
  };
  
  Person1.prototype.set_name = function(name) {
  	this.name = name;
  };
  
  
  var createPerson2 = function(name) {
  	var p = {
  		name: name
  	};
  
  	return {
  		get_name: function () {
  			return p.name;
  		},
  		set_name: function (name) {
  			p.name = name;
  		}
  	};
  };
  
  
  function get_name(p) {
  	return p.name;
  }
  
  function set_name(p, name) {
  	p.name = name;
  }
  
  var createPerson3 = function (name) {
  	var p = {
  		name: name
  	};
  	return {
  		get_name: get_name.bind(null, p),
  		set_name: set_name.bind(null, p),
  	}
  };
  
  var i;
  var p1List = [];
  var p2List = [];
  var p3List = [];
  
  for (i = 0; i < 10000; i += 1) {
   p1List.push(new Person1('John #' + i));
   p2List.push(createPerson2('John2 #' + i));
   p3List.push(createPerson3('John3 #' + i));
  }
