Is this faster:
$(document.links).filter('a.someClass')
than just plain old this:
$('a.someClass')
?
I don't see anywhere in jQuery's code the utilization of document.links
which gives you the collection of links on the document right away,
than, it would seem, it would be faster to just filter in the collection
instead of all the DOM nodes, which is alot more nodes to go over.
