Description

I don't know if this is a pattern but:

All of these PRs improved performance by changing object creation to an instantiation of a class, this could not be the primary reason for the third PR but I think was the main reason for the first two PRs.

Should we look for more patterns like this?

Research direction

Start by reviewing the three linked Node.js pull requests and their performance changes. Search the repository for similar raw-object construction patterns, then compare their benchmarks and implementation context. The issue does not name files, tests, or a concrete completion criterion; done would require identifying a defensible pattern and proposing or documenting follow-up work.
