}
else {

}
結果は次のとおりです。
------------------
Brute Force Method
------------------
The sum of them is: 233168
Benchmark took 64539 nanoseconds.
------------------
Arithmetic Method
------------------
The sum of them is: 233168
Benchmark took 155719 nanoseconds.
------------------
Which is Faster
------------------
A is 91180 nanoseconds faster than B.
それは正しくありません... 算術はもっと速くなるはずです。したがって、これらの行のコメントを外して確認します。
console.log(aTimer);
console.log(bTimer);
そして、結果は今では正確に見えます。
------------------
Brute Force Method
------------------
The sum of them is: 233168
[ 1697962, 721676140 ]
Benchmark took 1642444 nanoseconds.
------------------
Arithmetic Method
------------------
The sum of them is: 233168
[ 1697962, 723573374 ]
Benchmark took 284646 nanoseconds.
------------------
Which is Faster
------------------
B is 1357798 nanoseconds faster than A.
次に、それらの行をもう一度コメントアウトすると、同じファンキーな結果が得られます。
これが起こる原因は何ですか？process.hrtime() について何か不足していますか?
