> whatever impl you're comparing against is not terribly good. Indeed it is not. The reference is a naive Object based DOM. The benchmark is also not using complete rendering and diffing: it uses versioning on the nodes. It replaces the updated dom nodes at a configurable rendering frequency. So it's very different and probably slower than current frameworks. The remark that triggered the mention of baredom was the supposed unavoidability of the GC. Baredom does not use it and WebAssembly might make non-GC VDoms popular. Still, JS engines GC has gotten very good.
