    Yep, as I thought.

    That's the test.. and it's arrays as I suspected.. Vectors are not being used here. Half of the test has something to do with arrays.

    Plus he himself admits:
    "You’re spot-on about this test only measuring AS3 performance versus that of JavaScript, hence the title of the series. I’m deliberately not testing anything related to graphics, sound, input, etc. in these tests."

    So basically, he's using Arrays for both, when vectors in AS3 perform almost 70% faster, he's not using any real world applications of JS such as animations or sound or whatever you will be doing when building apps.

    As I said, this is extremely unreliable test. It actually doesn't prove anything.

    • until I see the actual code.. this is just one example that we really have no way of verifying.Boz
