jsPerf.app is an online JavaScript performance benchmark test runner & jsperf.com mirror. It is a complete rewrite in homage to the once excellent jsperf.com now with hopefully a more modern & maintainable codebase.
jsperf.com URLs are mirrored at the same path, e.g:

In jQuery 1.6.x and previous the .html() function uses an variable called rnocache for determining problematic html tags for both caching and for the use of innerHtml. The problem is that these two purposes share very little overlap, and conflating them results in not using innerHtml in places where it's perfectly safe, and much faster. A fix for this has gone into jQuery 1.7.
For discussion and bug see:
To implement the test, I extend jquery 1.7 with a .html2() function which is a direct copy of the version of .html() 1.7 directly before the patch which addresses this issue.
In 1.7 there is a new variable,
rnoInnerhtml = /<script|<style/i
which I use in place of rnocache within .html(). This change allows me to then copy a select box using innerHTML rather than .empty().append() which results in some rather large speed increases.
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.7b1.js"></script>
<div>Original: <div id="source"><select id="test_select" name="test_select">
<option label="1">0</option>
<option label="1">1</option>
<option label="2">2</option>
<option label="3" selected="selected">3</option>
<option label="4">4</option>
<option label="1">5</option>
<option label="2">6</option>
<option label="3">7</option>
<option label="4">8</option>
<option label="1">9</option>
</select>
</div></div>
Following two selects should be identical:
<div>Unoptimized copy: <div id="destination"></div></div>
<div>Optimized copy:<div id="destination2"></div></div>
<div>Optimized copy:<div id="destination3"></div></div>
