Comment (by Otto42):

 Firefox 37.0.2 cares too, but not quite as much:

 {{{
 console.time('a'); for (i = 1; i <= 10000; i++)
 re.test('1111111111111111111'); console.timeEnd('a');
 a: 9.82ms

 console.time('a'); for (i = 1; i <= 10000; i++)
 re.test('111111111111111111“'); console.timeEnd('a');
 a: 85.79ms
 }}}
