If you hand me some code to run, I'll run it. Otherwise my test risks not being the same one that you used to make the claim.

The onus is on the person making the claim, not the person trying to verify it.

See my previous comment[0]. That perf test is testing Backbone's use of jQ vs. native DOM, not jQ v. DOM in isolation. I don't trust that there aren't side effects and interactions in the test.
