FWIW: v8's internal optimizations are internal implementation details, and
any client code which optimizes specifically for them will, long term,
require more maintenance and possibly have more bugs/regressions. It is, in
general, poor practice for client code to assume that it knows ANYTHING
with certainty about a 3rd-party library beyond what is documented in
the library's API docs... errr... well, okay, that might be the problem
right there.
