public var sqrMagnitude: float;
public float sqrMagnitude;

Description

Returns the squared length of this vector (Read Only).

Calculating the squared magnitude instead of the magnitude is much faster. Often if you are comparing magnitudes of two vectors you can just compare their squared magnitudes.
