	* index.html:

added link to changes log

2007-11-05

	* benchmark.js:

really compute "performance speed difference" for BOTH sides

	* benchmark.js:

force "one at a time" (nATime=1) if (before|after)Test trigger is provided
AND user didn't declare "he knows better" (declaring a value for nATime)

2007-09-05

	* benchmark_htmlish.js:

display a "spikes" column when error control is enabled

	* benchmark.js, index.html:

compute "best" ASAP (while determining "nATime" value) in order to make
"spike" control behave better

	* benchmark.js, benchmark_firebug.js, benchmark_htmlish.js,
	  benchmark_jsref.js, benchmark_perlish.js, index.html:

- implemented some cheap error control system (spikes filtering);
- "data" is an ad-hoc object (again);
- cumulative behaviour (re-runs will add-up to previous results);
- slight refactoring (backward compatible as much as possible).

	  t/createOneElement.html, t/isin.html, t/looping.html,
	  t/loops.html, t/repeat.html, t/split-fancy.html, t/strip.html:

- automatic "best" nATime value setup (OK, I'm sure it's not the best,
but it works.. at least for a first version);
- changed default "nATime" value to 0 (to use automatic detection);
- made "nATime" configurable for each to-be-benchmarked function;
- changed default "iterations" value to -0.2 (longer, but not quite);
- refactorized initial start into a "run" method (prototyping a future
object reuse feature);
- documentation updates.

	* benchmark_perlish.js, benchmark_jsref.js:

always use 3 digits precision for best/worst/avg; added "nATime" (x=XXX) to output

	  t/escapeHTML.html, t/looping.html, t/loops.html, t/setStyle.html,
	  t/split.html, t/strip.html:

- changed calling syntax: new Benchmark(functions, options);
- lotta code refactorization (yes, again);
- dropped "this.names", "this.methods", "this.currentIndex",
"this.currentMethod", etc and switched to a single data structure:
"this.data" (with its "this.current" friend);
- dropped "output", refactorized into Benchmark.Responders;
- more, more, more documentation

	* benchmark.js:

dropped "namesRated", switched to "methodsByRate"

	* benchmark.js:

More refactorization:
- dropped "this.current" (using "this.currentMethod" and "this.currentIndex");
- "this.results" is now a Hash;
- every output signal is handled asynchronously;
- pass "this.currentMethod" ("current method name") to appropriate output signals
  ("start", "chill", "resume", "end");
- more efficient results "comparison" computations;
...

2007-02-07

	* benchmark.js, style.css:

HEAVY code refactorization!

	* benchmark.js, benchmark_compressed.js:

another step towards the greater light ;-)

2007-02-06

	* benchmark.js:

converted "results" to an Array of Hashes

	* benchmark.js, benchmark_creator.js, index.html,
	  t/escapeHTML.html, t/looping.html, t/setStyle.html:

- this.methods is no longer mutated into an Array;
- allow float numbers for this.iterations (useful for time limited benchmarking);
- tiny refactoring: enhanced this.current attributes (dropped "method", added
  "name" and "idx");
- initialize "prepare" and "cleanup" to "identity" function and dropped
  their conditional execution;

(more to come soon: still working on refactoring the "output" system)

	* benchmark_creator.js:

do not validate "iterations" as positive integer (let Benchmark handle invalid values)

2007-02-05

	* t/: escapeHTML.html, looping.html, loops.html, setStyle.html,
	  split.html, strip.html:

use "minimum running time" mode by default

	* benchmark.js, index.html, style.css, t/looping.html:

- refactorization: do not use local variables for keeping current status, use
  "this.current" instead;
- implemented a "minimum running time" benchmarking mode.

2007-01-10

	* benchmark_creator.js, creator.html:

moved out js code

2007-01-08

	* benchmark.js:

- tidier code (more comments, cleaner variables names, etc);
- made JSON results (numeric values) look more similar to those "plain text".

	* creator.html:

load JSON module (to show JSON results too)

	* benchmark.js, creator.html, index.html, t/escapeHTML.html,
	  t/loops.html, t/setStyle.html, t/split.html, t/strip.html:

- changed "samples" to "iterations" (sounds more inteligible);
- plugged an "eol" parameter to properly "dump" results (MSIE wants "\r\n",
  all others need only the usual "\n");
- gather JSON formatted results into "resultsJSON" property (it will be
  dumped at the end of "text results" if JSON module is loaded);
- changed startup delay to be the "cooldown" (avoiding the arbitrary "100");
- dropped the "skip_rest" cruft (from "cmpResults").

2007-01-07

	* benchmark.js, index.html:

dropped Function.bind (using our "delay")
