Thanks for the research. That beeing said, I agree with Derrick. Moreover, I think that this should not even be an aspect considered in the optimizazion of the code. I think that there's always space for algorithmic optimization dealing with computational complexity, first (something much more important to optimize). Finally, nothing guarantees that this "optimization" will work on every interpreter or on different versions of the same interpreter. Interesting, nevertheless.

In fact a setTimeout calling the function where it is contained is a commonly adopted safe way to do cycle indefinetly with invervals, even instead of setInterval, because it makes sure that the calling function ends before the called one starts. @wiill I agree, the result would be the same, but way safer.

Anyway, you need to run not ten but ten million tests to be able to tell an average value properly.

I've to check this out with some performance tests. @wiill – interesting case. I’ve to check this out with some performance tests.
