Benchmark elm - Pass all of a Model of just sub-parts of it

The view function of a given page is usually made up of multiple sub-view functions which only operate on a small part of the Model of the page.

The aim is to benchmark what the performance implications are for passing all of a model or just the fields that are necessary to these sub-view functions

I think there won't be huge performance difference between the two approaches. Elm compiles to JS and in JavaScript, and even though it uses call by value semantics, objects are references. Based on that I think it doesn't really matter if large or small record is being passed. I believe run-time is always copying just a reference to object which should be of same size in both cases.
