# fast-apply Apply an array of arguments... faster. ```javascript var fastApply = require('fast-apply') , scope = {} ; function run() {} fastApply(run, scope, [ 'a', 'b', 'c' ]); ``` ## Installation $ npm install fast-apply ## Dependencies none ## Speed It uses a simple switch statement to `call` the function rather than `apply` for up to 5 arguments. While more than 5 arguments would run faster using `apply`, anything less will be [up to twice as fast](http://jsperf.com/many-arguments-apply-vs-switch/2) If the scope is `null`, fastApply will run up to 3 times faster than `apply` ## Limitations - It is only optimized for 5 arguments or less. If you think the function will frequently be taking more than 5 arguments, I suggest that you instead use `apply`
