Is there a performance impact in using live instead of bind in jQuery?
<p>I found some questions regarding the <code>live</code> and <code>bind</code>, but none of them was regarding the performance. I think the title is quite clear, so is there a performance impact in using <code>live</code> in jQuery? Why I'm asking this is beacuse you have to do the lookup everytime the event is fired when using <code>live</code> and my thought is that this might impact the performance in a negative way. Or are jQuery doing some magic stuff that speed up this, like listening to some kind of event that is fired when something is added to the DOM?</p>
