It uses a DataView for actual data manipulation which does aligned writing. I don't have stats, I'll get some now that I've settled on a better implementation of the property dispatcher. Reading and writing itself should be as fast as a DataView is, there might be a small overhead in the dispatch of indexes but I'm not sure.
I'm also considering switching to an implementation that will use instances of the specific ArrayBuffer type since they have seen more optimization than DataView has, but they have no built in support for aligned writing and simply use system endianness so it might not be a net gain in many cases. It should at least be worth it for 1 byte types though. -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
