| // faster than JS when doing raw CPU-intensive sorting. However, when using a | |
| // custom comparator function, calling back and forth between the VM's C++ and | |
| // JIT'd JS is rather slow *and* loses JIT type information, resulting in | |
| // worse generated code for the comparator function than would be optimal. In | |
| // fact, when sorting with a comparator, these costs outweigh the benefits of | |
| // sorting in C++. By using our own JS-implemented Quick Sort (below), we get | |
| // a ~3500ms mean speed-up in `bench/bench.html`. | |
