    The code is ultimately ran in a JS interpreter. AFAIK TS transpiles into JS, there’s no TS specific interpreter. But such a huge difference is unexpected to me.

      Its really not, have you noticed how an enum is transpiled? you end up with a function… a lot of other things follow the same pattern.

        Nope, have not noticed because I hate JavaScript with a passion. Thanks for educating me.

          fair enough :D but it does happen and there are reasons for that: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47363996/why-does-an-enum-transpile-into-a-function

          Just FYI the example that person gave would absolutely not explain a huge performance difference. I don’t think they understand what they’re looking at.
