jquery-1.1.4.js line 1520: // Only trigger if we've ever bound an event for it if ( this.global[type] ) jQuery("*").add([window, document]).trigger(type, data);
I think "jQuery("*")" is slow when the page contains large amount of elements. This makes some global events very slow ( ajaxStart with blockUI ). In 1.1.3.1, elements with global event are stored in an array. Any ideas?
