Thank you Jacob!
 

Seeing it take 22% is rare. Is your app heavy on polymorphic property loads?

 
Yes, I'm writing an interpreter and it was doing a *lot* of instanceof 
checks.  Since I don't have undefined or null values in my interpreter, 
rather than use x instanceof Foo I can instead give Foo instances a "type" 
property of e.g. 100 and use x.type === 100, which is faster.  So indeed 
yes, now it's doing a lot of polymorphic property loads! :-)  Makes perfect 
sense, thanks!
