dumb test to see if splitting a string takes longer than just making the fucking array.js

var start, end, diff, splitString, nativeArray;

splitString = function () {
  return 'foo bar baz bing ding dong lars foo bar baz bing ding dong lars foo bar baz bing ding dong lars foo bar baz bing ding dong lars foo bar baz bing ding dong lars foo bar baz bing ding dong lars'.split(' ');
};

nativeArray = function () {
  return ['foo', 'bar', 'baz', 'bing', 'ding', 'dong', 'lars', 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 'bing', 'ding', 'dong', 'lars', 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 'bing', 'ding', 'dong', 'lars', 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 'bing', 'ding', 'dong', 'lars', 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 'bing', 'ding', 'dong', 'lars', 'foo', 'bar', 'baz', 'bing', 'ding', 'dong', 'lars'];
};

start = performance.now();
splitString();
end  = performance.now();
diff = end - start;
console.log('Splitting the long string took ' + diff);

start = performance.now();
nativeArray();
end  = performance.now();
diff = end - start;
console.log('Creating the array the "normal" way took ' + diff);
