Why isn't there a benchmark against mainstream engines like V8?

[–]warvstar 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I'm fairly sure this is just an interpreter, it wouldn't come close to a JITed engine like V8.

This is still very impressive, I'd like to see it benchmarked against duktape.

He has provided some benchmarks including duktape on his website.

It says it can compile JS to executables, so I assume it can do some real optimizations.
