Hi, Does webkit cache squirrelfish bytecode? For example, multiple can use the same javascript file (e.g. common javascript libraries, like jquery, or same domain uses some common javascript file across different pages for the same domain). When webkit parses the JS file and builds squirrelfish-bytecode, does it cache it ? so that subsequence loading of the same js file will skip the js compile process?
We don't currently cache the bytecode (or the native code). It is an option we have considered, however, currently, code generation is a trivial portion of JS execution time (< 2%), so we're not pursuing this at the moment.
