Hidden classes in JavaScript and Inline Caching

Knowing how internals work is always a good. Pretty much for everything. Cars, trains, computers, you name it. It gives you an insight on what happens under the hood. You also act/react differently based on this knowledge.

As you might have guessed, it’s also true for web development. Knowledge of CSS transitions allows you to achieve better performance and not to use JavaScript in most cases. Knowledge of V8 internals allows you to write more performant JavaScript code. So let’s talk about V8 a little.

A little about V8

V8 is a JavaScript engine built by Google. Firefox built SpiderMonkey, Opera built Carakan and Microsoft built Chakra. One very important difference between V8 and other JavaScript engines is that V8 doesn’t generate any intermediate code. It compiles JavaScr

	//Drop-in replacement for PHP's SoapClient class supporting connect and response/transfer timeout and authentication
	//Usage: Exactly as PHP's SoapClient class, except that some new options are available:
	// timeout The response/transfer timeout in milliseconds; 0 == default SoapClient / CURL timeout
	// connecttimeout The connection timeout; 0 == default SoapClient / CURL timeout
	// sslverifypeer FALSE to stop SoapClient from verifying the peer's certificate
	// sslversion The SSL version (2 or 3) to use. By default PHP will try to determine this itself, although in some cases this must be set manually
	// sslverifyhost 1 to check the existence of a common name in the SSL peer certificate. 2 to check the existence of a common name and also verify that

	We rename "master" to "develop"
	We rename "release" to "master"
	Thus "master" stays the default branch, which means most PRs will be made
	against it.
	Bugfixes are merged to:
	- master
	- develop
	Features are merged to:
	- develop
	When develop looks like the next minor or major version:
