This is super cool, I didn't know JavaScriptCore consistently outperformed V8

And SpiderMonkey seems... not up there compared to the other 2

Interesting how V8 to JSC ~2x LOC but ~2/3 the binary size.

That’s the promise of Bun - that it is faster because it uses JavascriptCore.

Disappointing for Firefox for such lower performance.

I just ran the JetStream2 benchmark and got:

- Firefox: 159 score

- Chromium: 235 score

That's on latest Fedora Linux and Ryzen 3600 CPU.
