ES6 classes are really just syntactic sugar for constructor functions and prototype initialisations. That is, both versions of your MyClass
definition are pretty much equivalent, and will very likely have identical performance characteristics in all implementations (not that there is one yet).
Performance of ES6 class inheritance

Question
Compared to the actual way of creating "classes" in Javascript as such:
function MyClass(){
}
MyClass.prototype.yada = function(){};
to the new ES6 class
class MyClass {
yada(){
}
}
Couldn't find any performance comparisions, but I'm really interested in __proto__/Object.setPrototypeOf inheritance than only the "class sugar" that ES6 offers.
