Ah ha! We can actually used typed arrays in JavaScript since there is a
Float64Array
. I've checked that both V8 and spidermonkey (only the former of which is part of the main experiment) support this, and they do.Tested using the warmup experiment running only V8 (we don't have an iterations running for spidermonkey).
Info about
Float64Array

OK?
