> What about the Timsort? I cannot believe it will be faster on random int array. And TimSort is base on MergeSort and, seems, for it's worst cases it cannot be better than MergeSort. I have tried https://github.com/mziccard/node-timsort/ with my old node.js - 0.10.4 and Chrome 49 (win32) - and I see that random int array case is much slower that native in Chrome, and in node.js too if I replace "native" with a function from https://github.com/v8/v8/blob/master/src/js/array.js .
Perhaps, implementers will want to leave the behaviour of `array.sort(comparefn)` as it was for backward compatiblity. _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list es-discuss@mozilla.org https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
