http://duktape.org/ It claims ES5 and some preliminary features from ES6. It is an interpreter so it will be slower than V8 but it would only take a day or two to get it going. Duktape is part of the IOT effort by the AllSeen Aliance (Linux Foundation) and has lots of support so I'm guessing it will be a viable tool for some time to come: https://allseenalliance.org/ https://wiki.allseenalliance.org/_media/training/programming_alljoyn.js.pdf The startup performance might be sufficient for your needs - TBD. If it doesn't work you are only out a weekend :-) I could help you with the C++ part (my day job is embedded systems C++) and I have been wanting to give duktape a try with ClojureScript anyway.
