If arrays get large, this should be more efficient since it performs O(n * n.log) instead of O(n * n).

It does look much faster than my solution. Will it also work correctly and fast for arrays of custom objects? How should opCmp() be defined if objects don't have a meaningful ordering? The order of elements in the original array does not matter.

To me it looks rather slow.
please benchmark!
