JavaScript Optimization article:
This document is intended to serve a number of purposes. One, it is intended to be a compendium of JavaScript optimization techniques, a place where one can turn to find optimization examples, some well known to JavaScript Programmers, and some not so well known. Two, it is also a source of performance information with regard to how these techniques perform in comparison to each other. Lastly, it is intended to address the issue of which programming optimization techniques work as intended in the interpreted environment in which JavaScript code runs.
There are a few web sites out there that deal with JavaScript optimization, but most only deal with size issues, and if they do deal with other issues, it is in a very general way. I seek to rectify that here. I will also delve into some of the more obscure issues related to programming optimization, and how they might impact on JavaScript. This document is divided into three main sections: Speed, Size and Memory.
