Hi Chris, a few month ago, I tried out Nashorn to achieve a fast pure-Java RequireJS build process. RequireJS' "optimizer" r.js is written in JavaScript and runs in Node.js and Rhino. Unfortunately, in Rhino, it is about ten times slower than in Node.js. So when I heard that Nashorn is to be much faster than Rhino, I had quite high expectations towards Nashorn and tweaked r.js to be Nashorn-compatible. Sorry to say that the result was quite disappointing: it was about three times faster than Rhino, but this is still about three times slower than Node.js / V8 (which is not the latest and fastest JS engine either). Maybe it was because of the pre-release version, which as far as I heard still missed many of the performance optimizations? I should try again with a current version...
