I was curious about the time difference between quoted and unquoted

about
it and got some interesting info.

In this test only the word "the" varies. The difference in speed when
omitting "the" from property references is much smaller than when
dealing with unquoted literals, but it still exists. In real-world
usage
it probably doesn't matter much.
Geek trivia. :)
And I am totally geeking out!
