| Bun is much worse in this regard too. |

| It makes me sad, because they demonstrated JavaScriptCore is shockingly better than V8 for node-likes. The Typescript compiler (which like basically any non-trivial typechecker is CPU bound) is consistently at least 2x faster with Bun on large projects I've worked on. |

| ▲ | johncolanduoni 3 days ago | parent [-] | | For that example sure, and admittedly the entire JavaScript/TypeScript processing ecosystem is moving in that direction. But the TypeScript compiler is not the only CPU-bound JavaScript out there. | | |
| ▲ | pjmlp 3 days ago | parent [-] | | There are plenty of memory safe compiled languages to rewrite that JavaScript into. |
