What algorithms are used in Gecko/Trident/Presto engines, when I call standard javascript array's method sort(functionSort)?

  • In Gecko, it's merge-sort since [this issue](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=224128) has been fixed. – raina77ow Jul 14 '14 at 12:52
  • Still I wonder shouldn't we close this post as duplicate of [this question](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/234683/javascript-array-sort-implementation). What's important is that ECMAScript standard doesn't describe any specific algorithm, leaving the choice up to browser vendors - and those guys aren't particularly committed to a specific algo. What should happen with this thread if (when) someone decides to change the sort implementation in some browser covered by it? – raina77ow Jul 14 '14 at 12:57
