对于Angular和React操作DOM的速度，和原生js操作DOM的速度进行了一个比较：

DOM Render
运行结果：
原生最快，为什么还要用框架？
问题分析
框架封装了很多操作，为了提升可维护性，会进行分层，只提供出API。很多应用其实类似，为了提升可读性可复用性，往往会分层、封装，单一的简单应用上性能上可能并不会有明显提升。但是，对于复杂的需要很多模块的应用，框架的优势就很明显。在不用自己优化性能的同时，可维护性也较好。框架会尽最大程度保证性能。复杂的情况，比如多次更新一块DOM，或者多块DOM同时更新等等。
React的VirtualDOM
如果没有VirtualDOM的情况下，想重置DOM，需要使用innerHTML.一个大型列表的数据如果都变更了，那么重置所有DOM无可厚非，但是更多的情况是，只有几个数据变更了，这种情况下，重新渲染大片DOM，就有些浪费了。
可以比较下虚拟DOM和innerHTML的差异：
innerHTML: render html string O(template size) + 重新创建所有 DOM 元素 O(DOM size)
Virtual DOM: render Virtual DOM + diff O(template size) + 必要的 DOM 更新 O(DOM change)可以看出，虚拟DOM在渲染环节和比较环节都会比InnerHTML慢些。但是，与操作DOM比起来，js运算是快很多的了。所以这一定程度上，速度会快些。
所以，不管每次有多少数据变更，性能都可以接受，React也并没有强调说一定比原生快这样。
MVVM与Virtual DOM比较
MVVM采用的都是数据绑定：
通过Directive/Binding对象来观察数据变化，有数据变化时改变对应的DOM显示。Angular的
Dirty Checking:scope digest O(watcher out)+必要的DOM更新 O(DOM change)
Angular比较受诟病的地方，就在于任何小的变动，都有和watcher数量相关的性能代价。
MVVM在渲染列表时，每一行数据都有自己的作用域，通常是每行都有一个对应的的ViewModel实例。或者有的是利用原型继承的scope对象，都是有代价的。一般ViewModel初始化都比Virtual DOM慢。
VirtualDOM的检测是DOM侧的，而ViewModel如果有数据更新，会销毁所有实例，重新创建实例，再进行一次渲染。所以较React会慢些。对于React，就算是全新的数据，只要渲染之后的DOM没变，不需要更新。
Angular提供了列表重绘的优化机制，就是让框架有效的复用实例和DOM元素。例如数据库里面的同一个数据，前端两次拉取会取到不同的值，但是他们有一样的uid.可以添加track by uid让ng知道，这俩对象是同一份数据。原来实例的对象和DOM就可以复用，只会更新变动的部分。上面的例子里面如果加上track by $index的话，会快一些。可以看看加了track by $index的运行结果:
没错，ng明显快了很多。
应用过程中，总是应该选择合适的框架，如果可能，对其做一些优化。
一般情况：
初始化渲染：Virtual DOM>Dirty Checking >=依赖收集
小范围数据更新：依赖收集>>Virtual DOM+优化>Dirty Checking
大量数据更新：Dirty Checking+优化>=依赖收集+优化>Virtual DOM
