Hi all, It would be good to see the state of JavaScript MapReduce on Riak improve.
erlang_js [1], which is used for JavaScript MapReduce, is using an antiquated version of SpiderMonkey that is missing tens of features and significant performance improvements. E.g., Object.getOwnPropertyNames(), Function.bind(). There is a pull request to attempt to update it to a more recent old version [2]. I think it would be interesting to get Google's V8 [3] running as a Riak MapReduce back-end. Some Erlang wrappers for v8 already exist [4]. Does anyone have any guidance or insight how one would go about writing a v8 Riak MapReduce backend ?
