I'd like to see some real benchmarks on this, too. Is it possible to rig up the test suite to do something like that?

On the other hand, won't the speeds (and the respective difference in speeds) depend to some extent on the complexity of the page?

I seem to recall having read a pretty convincing argument by someone on this list (Michael Geary maybe?) about the unreliability of speed benchmarks, but I could be confusing it with some other loosely related matter.

Has anyone done any benchmarks to compare the speeds of using
different expressions? Like how much faster $("a.myclass") is than
$(".myclass") and the difference, if any, between
$("a").filter(".myclass") and $("a.myclass") etc.
