No, they are just rather useless operations on data views. That doesn't make the argument moot. >> Also, it is preferable to make them as lightweight as >> possible. > > See my previous mail.

You can very well optimize the representation of typed arrays if they don't have user-defined properties. Whether that's worth it I can't tell without experiments. Admittedly, it's a minor point. /Andreas _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
