Optimize String.prototype.includes
This patch removes the MathMax call from String.prototype.includes in order to improve performance. With some quick and dirty benchmarking, (test case courtesy of the node folks) a sizable performance gain is visible: d8> function testIndexOf() { var stringArray = [ 'hello', 'world', '123', 'abc' ]; return stringArray.some(function(val, idx, arr) { return val.indexOf('world') !== -1 })} d8> function testIncludes() { var stringArray = [ 'hello', 'world', '123', 'abc' ]; return stringArray.some(function(val, idx, arr) { return val.includes('world') })} d8> function testTime(fn) { var before = Date.now(); fn(); return Date.now() - before; } d8> testTime(function() { for (var i = 0; i < 10000000; i++) { testIncludes() } }) 2244 d8> testTime(function() { for (var i = 0; i < 10000000; i++) { testIndexOf() } }) 2212 Compare that to before the test, when the performance difference was much larger: d8> testTime(function() { for (var i = 0; i < 10000000; i++) { testIndexOf() } }) 2223 d8> testTime(function() { for (var i = 0; i < 10000000; i++) { testIncludes() } }) 2650 In my runs, performance of both functions drifts up and down, but running them in quick succession back and forth shows a roughly consistent delta of about this magnitude. String.prototype.includes is still slightly (maybe 5%) slower than String.prototype.indexOf, but the effect is significantly reduced.
