Optimization is a game of compromises I'd say - you have readability/maintainability/speed of development on one hand and "performance" of the code itself on the other - timing/memory etc. If I understand it right, ruby language and rails framework tends to weight the first category more - and that is where my advice comes from. But you are right...if you know for sure that you are going to run a particular version of a particular browser, you might as well spend all the time to figure out all the JS special functions provided by that JS engine and squeeze out every bit of power.
