There is no substantial difference in performance on mine (within 2%), although the OR was always a little bit faster. Chrome 45 on Linux It's odd that a bitwise operator should have the effect of truncating the float (since X|0 == X)? I'm guessing there's an implicit type conversion to int in the middle?
