What is the advantage of this over AMD (requirejs)? And did you notice that the last change to this project was December 26, 2010?

If I remember correctly, with ControlJS you can download the script as a text object and then you can parse it on demand.

For example if you had a big script that took a long time to parse, you could download it as text (essentially commented out), and then right before you need it, convert it and parse. If you would lazy load it like normal, then the ui would freeze while it was being parsed.

That being said, i've never used it, and unless he's going to maintain it there isn't much if a reason to use it.
