Looks like another good release, yet more performance improvements and a few useful new features! Regarding speed testing, maybe it is worth mentioning the PC specification of the machine that performs these tests? For example, mine (Core Duo 1.6Ghz) .extend() 1.2.3 - 63 1.2.6 - 46 .map()

Still a performance improvement, but not as great as the test machine - i.e. the faster the client PC processor, the better the performance improvement (I don't think RAM will have much of an impact as the CPU is doing the work). How so? Your .extend() improved by 37% and your .map()

I suppose a few % points off isn't that much of a difference and in some cases were even better. But I expect mine isn't too far off the test machine. Think I got my maths the wrong way round: ((1.2.3 time - 1.2.6 time) / 1.2.3 time) * 100 e.g. for .extend(): ((63 - 46) / 63) * 100 (17 / 63) *

.extend() was used extensively in the event handling code, hence the need for improvement. How does it compare with other libraries now? How does what compare? No other library is making the optimizations we are - or even examining how to perform faster operations here. --John

Mainly CSS selector tests, but perhaps also methods that may be common among libraries (like map, extend), but that may be more difficult. There is this one, but it uses old libraries (not just jQuery): http://dev.jquery.com/~john/slick/ -Sam On Jun 4, 3:52 pm, John Resig [EMAIL PROTECTED]
