Approximate text width based on estimated character widths...
var textWidth = (function() {
function charW(w, c) {
if (c == 'W' || c == 'M') w += 15;
else if (c == 'w' || c == 'm') w += 12;
else if (c == 'I' || c == 'i' || c == 'l' || c == 't' || c == 'f') w += 4;
else if (c == 'r') w += 8;
else if (c == c.toUpperCase()) w += 12;
else w += 10;

Latency numbers every programmer should know

Latency numbers every programmer should know

L1 cache reference ......................... 0.5 ns
Branch mispredict ............................ 5 ns
L2 cache reference ........................... 7 ns
Mutex lock/unlock ........................... 25 ns
Main memory reference ...................... 100 ns             
Compress 1K bytes with Zippy ............. 3,000 ns  =   3 µs
Send 2K bytes over 1 Gbps network ....... 20,000 ns  =  20 µs
SSD random read ........................ 150,000 ns  = 150 µs

Read 1 MB sequentially from memory ..... 250,000 ns = 250 µs
