[jQuery] ANNOUNCE: Speed Tests Feedback
We know that a lot of you have been concerned about the speed test
results recently generated by the SlickSpeed Selector Test Suite. We
understand your concerns and realize how tests like these can cause
misconceptions about real-world performance to those unfamiliar with
client-side development. As such, the team is committed to improving
selector performance and will begin looking into this after v1.1.3 is
officially released. Improvements could come in the form of an interim
release or in jQuery v1.2, depending on the complexities of the changes
and how they tie into the overall core architecture.
John Resig, jQuery project team leader, will make a decision as to how
these improvements will be implemented and will also make a formal blog
posting about v1.2 soon after v1.1.3 is out of beta. We will continue to
focus on maintaining a small, feature-rich package but will consider
increasing jQuery's core size to accommodate improvements.
As you know, the jQuery project has one of the most enthusiastic and
supportive communities on the Net and its important to ensure that every
jQuery developer feels like the project team is listening to their
concerns. We've certainly heard you and will be working to improve
selector speeds in the near future.
Thanks for all the feedback and support.
Rey....
