`var` bindings are never in the temporal dead zone (TDZ), and so we
know accessing them will not throw.
We now take advantage of this by having a specialized environment
binding value getter that doesn't check for exceptional cases.
1.08x speedup on JetStream.
Before this change, setting a global would end up as SetLexicalBinding.
That instruction always failed to cache the access if the global was a
property of the global object.
1.14x speedup on Octane/earley-boyer.js
2.04x speedup on MicroBench/for-of.js
Note that MicroBench/for-of.js was more of a "set global" benchmark
before this. After this change, it's actually a for..of benchmark. :^)
...by avoiding `{ value, done }` iterator result value allocation. This
change applies the same otimization 81b6a11 added for `for..in` and
`for..of`.
Makes following micro benchmark go 22% faster on my computer:
```js
function f() {
const arr = [];
for (let i = 0; i < 10_000_000; i++) {
arr.push([i]);
}
let sum = 0;
for (let [i] of arr) {
sum += i;
}
}
f();
```
Introduce special instruction for `for..of` and `for..in` loop that
skips `{ value, done }` result object allocation if iterator is builtin
(array, map, set, string). This reduces GC pressure significantly and
avoids extracting the `value` and `done` properties.
This change makes this micro benchmark 48% faster on my computer:
```js
const arr = new Array(10_000_000);
let counter = 0;
for (let _ of arr) {
counter++;
}
```
This reverts commit 36bb2824a6.
Although this was faster on my M3 MacBook Pro, other Apple machines
disagree, including our benchmark runner. So let's revert it.
This is a simple trick to generate better native code for access to
registers, locals, and constants. Before this change, each access had
to first dereference the member pointer in Interpreter, and then get to
the values. Now we always have a pointer directly to the values on hand.
Here's how it looks:
class StackFrame {
public:
Value get(Operand) const;
void set(Operand, Value);
private:
Value m_values[];
};
And we just place one of these as a window on top of the execution
context's array of values (registers, locals, and constants).
Instead of returning internal generator results as ordinary JS::Objects
with properties, we now use GeneratorResult and CompletionCell which
both inherit from Cell directly and allow efficient access to state.
1.59x speedup on JetStream3/lazy-collections.js :^)
