Trine – A utility library for functional programming in JavaScript

Ugh — this plague again. No other coding community has latched on to performance tests like the javascript one. For NO GOOD REASON.

They're not expensive. You're not binding thousands of times a second anyway, so stop your silly premature optimizations.

1. I already gave an out for your point. Yes, always weigh performance vs. clarity and don't over optimize.

2. You are making an assumption that you aren't binding thousands of times a second. You need to take actual use case into consideration.

3. My example has a 1000:1 method call to bind ratio and it's still a significant difference in benchmarks. Yes, it's that expensive it's important to think about in critical sections of code.
