As I said, that depends on the JavaScript engine. It is possible to write a
JS engine that doesn't compile anything at all -- a couple of years ago
that was the usual situation. If an engine does compile JS to machine code,
it can freely decide when to do that (e.g. immediately up front, or on
demand, or after x calls to a given function, etc.; for modern engines
there's additionally the distinction between unoptimized and optimized
compilation). There is no way a benchmark could explicitly measure this.

In the special case of V8, some compilation time will be part of the score,
and some compilation will already happen during the warmup phase (which
does not count towards the score). I would expect other modern JS engines
to behave similarly.

Several runs are performed and timed, then a reference value is divided by
the average time per run. See
