Krawczyk, Sizzle doesn't cheat, but John Resig has done some great stuff there, unfortunately all these tricks dont work in IE < 8. Mainly he's doing caching, but IE has no event when the dom changed, so caching doesnt work in ie, neither does the use of the native .querySelectorAll which really boosts some selectors the newest browsers.

MooTools' new selector engine will also make use of .querySelector and probably caching (we need to make sure its worth, since you shouldnt use the same query multiple times anyway).

I understand what you're saying Jan, however you need to see the thing
we're seeing – which is MooTools being on the fourth position in the
selector-speed race. And what we'd really like to see is MT being the
leader.

Personally, I'm really psyched to see the new selector engine in
action.

He cheats. He caches elements, even though he cant cache when the dom
changes, so his results would have to be multiplied (slickspeed fires
each query 4 times, iirc).

Btw. we will have a new Selector engine the next release (most likely).

/me doesnt like to compare the libraries by the selectors, all
libraries are fast enough already, so selector speed should not make
you're decision, but rather features and code style
