Benchmark: one intersectionObserver per one element vs one interactionObservers on many elements

HTML Preparation code:

<div id='wrapper' style="height: 300px; overflow: hidden;"></div>

Script Preparation code:

var node = document.getElementById('wrapper');

for(var i = 0; i < 2; i++) {
    var el = document.createElement('div'); el.innerText = 'hi world'; el.style['padding-bottom'] = '175px'; node.appendChild(el)      
};

Tests:

one interactionObservers on many elements
var interfn = function(entry){console.log(entry[0])}; var inter = new IntersectionObserver(interfn, { root: null, threshold: 0}); document.querySelectorAll('#wrapper > div').forEach(function(el){ inter.observe(el); }) var node = document.getElementById('wrapper'); node.lastChild.scrollIntoView({behavior: 'smooth'})
one intersectionObserver per one element
document.querySelectorAll('#wrapper > div').forEach(function(el){ var interfn = function(entry){console.log(entry[0])}; var inter = new IntersectionObserver(interfn, { root: null, threshold: 0}); inter.observe(el); }) var node = document.getElementById('wrapper'); node.lastChild.scrollIntoView({behavior: 'smooth'})
