What does this tell us about the energy efficieny about the whole Javascript ecosystem?
I am not in the position to make realistic estimates, but it sounds pretty wasteful. I have worked in mobile devices space and there you need to think about about energy efficiency to have your battery last. Shouldn't the server and Web guys need to do the same to save the planet?
Not pointing to isarray in particular, but this looks like a tremendous overhead to get minimal functionality. Is isarray an exception we can ignore or a pattern that repeats in scale?

Not to mention the exclusiveness: more than 3 billion people on this planet - have old computer and phones with limited RAM - ...and limited storage - ...and slow CPUs - have slow Internet access (even in "developed" countries if you are in low-density areas) - have traffic caps (same) - sometimes have intermittent Internet access - have unreliable or expensive electricity Reminder: this is not an inevitable problem. A lot of Linux distros run just fine on old hardware, and websites without cruft are still usable.
