Definitely — CouchDB already uses JS for its map/reduce queries. (They're using SpiderMonkey, btw.) > What I need is for "queries" to be sandboxed against each other It sounds like V8 would work for this, if only it supported independent contexts in multiple threads as per the patch nicity referred to. The advantage of V8 over SpiderMonkey is that it's much, much faster. You might take a look at SquirrelFish, as I said earlier, since I suspect that by now they've made it accessible from multiple threads. It's not quite as fast as V8 but it's still a lot better than SpiderMonkey. —Jens --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ v8-users mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/v8-users -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
