- * This implementation of checkIsHttpToken() loops over the string instead of
- * using a regular expression since the former is up to 180% faster with v8 4.9
- * depending on the string length (the shorter the string, the larger the
- * performance difference)
- *
- * Additionally, checkIsHttpToken() is currently designed to be inlinable by v8,
- * so take care when making changes to the implementation so that the source
- * code size does not exceed v8's default max_inlined_source_size setting.
