The TypedArray.prototype[Symbol.toStringTag] getter is currently the best (and as far as I can tell only definitely side-effect free) way to check whether an arbitrary object is a TypedArray - either generally TypedArray or a specific one like Uint8Array. Using the getter is thus emerging as the general pattern to detect TypedArrays, even Node.js now adapted it starting with https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/15663 for the isTypedArray and isUint8Array type checks in lib/internal/util/types.js now. The getter returns either the string with the TypedArray subclass name (i.e. "Uint8Array") or undefined if the receiver is not a TypedArray. This can be implemented with a simple elements kind dispatch, instead of checking the instance type and then loading the class name from the constructor, which requires a loop walking up the transition tree. This CL ports the builtin to CSA and TurboFan, and changes the logic to a simple elements kind check. On the micro-benchmark mentioned in the referenced bug, the time goes from testIsArrayBufferView: 565 ms. testIsTypedArray: 2403 ms. testIsUint8Array: 3847 ms. to testIsArrayBufferView: 566 ms. testIsTypedArray: 965 ms. testIsUint8Array: 965 ms. which presents an up to 4x improvement.
