Benchmark: Loop Optimization

Loop Optimization (version: 0)

Checking differences between various for/while loops.

Comparing performance of: For loop, basic vs While loop, basic vs For loop, cached (inside for statement) vs For loop, cached (outside for statement) vs For loop, i-- (caching inside for loop) vs For loop, i-- (caching outside for loop) vs While loop, cached vs While loop, i-- vs forEach

Script Preparation code:

  var arr = [];
  for (var i = 0; i < 10000; i++) {
    arr.push(i);
  }

var sum = 0;

Tests:

For loop, basic
for (var i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) { sum += arr[i]; }
While loop, basic
var i = 0; while (i < arr.length) { sum += arr[i]; i++; }
For loop, cached (inside for statement)
for (var i = 0, len = arr.length; i < len; i++) { sum += arr[i]; }
For loop, cached (outside for statement)
var len = arr.length; for (var i = 0; i < len; i++) { sum += arr[i]; }
For loop, i-- (caching inside for loop)
for (var i = arr.length; i > 0; i--) { sum += arr[i]; }
For loop, i-- (caching outside for loop)
var i = arr.length; for (; i--;) { sum += arr[i]; }
While loop, cached
var len = arr.length; var i = 0; while(i < len){ sum += arr[i]; i++; }
While loop, i--
var i = arr.length; while(i--){ sum += arr[i]; }
forEach
arr.forEach(function(val){ sum += val; });
