The Announcement is slower (about 2-3x slower). However, for 1M events the difference is measured in a 200-400ms, which is very small. So you mean each event <1ms difference? btw, what is the biggest usage of events? I guess mouse movements? How many such events typically in 1 second of movement? How is performance on StackInterpreter VM? I guess we should keep that performant for platforms lacking JIT like iPads, etc…
