Interesting. Running this here always takes around 2650ms. It appears
that function expressions and function declarations exhibit the problem
differently:

function bench2() { ... as before ... }

var bench3 = function () { ... as before ... };

bench3();   -> 2655ms
bench3();   -> 2652ms
bench2();   -> 18ms
bench2();   -> 59ms
bench2();   -> 64ms
bench2();   -> 62ms
bench2();   -> 60ms
bench2();   -> 57ms
bench2();   -> 61ms
bench2();   -> 303ms
bench2();   -> 303ms
bench2();   -> 300ms
bench2();   -> 301ms
bench2();   -> 301ms
bench2();   -> 2653ms
bench3();   -> 2648ms
bench3();   -> 2652ms

Must be an old bug in my Chromium version. I guess I won't be doing any
more benchmarks until I can find the time to upgrade my OS :)

Thank you (and GGolf and Scott) for testing!
