Benchmark: fastest isArray - MeasureThat.net

Script Preparation code:

var toStr = Object.prototype.toString
	
function toStrCase(obj){
  return toStr.call(obj) === '[object Array]'
}
function consCase(obj){
  return obj && obj.constructor === Array
}
function instCase(obj){
  return obj && obj instanceof Array
}
function popCase(obj) {
  return obj.pop 
}
var isArray = Array.isArray

Tests:

Array.isArray
isArray([])
instanceof
instCase([])
[].constructor
consCase([])
Object.prototype.toString
toStrCase([])
obj.pop
