Script Preparation code:

const large = 11294810293810000;
const smaller = large / 60000;

function millisToMins(millis) {
  return millis / 60000;
}

function doesNothing(input) {
  return input;
}

Tests:

working with millis then converting
millisToMins(large / 12131 * 1237)
working with minutes directly
smaller / 12131 * 1237
working with minutes directly (with a wrapped function call to see if that causes slowness)
doesNothing(smaller / 12131 * 1237)
more wrapping to see performance impact
doesNothing(doesNothing(doesNothing(doesNothing(doesNothing(smaller / 12131 * 1237)))))
