I remember, for instance, that XUL was highly optimized to not create DOM nodes for huge/infinite lists/trees/... Last time I heard about someone attempting to implement these optimizations with comparable APIs in HTML5, the results were ok, but not nearly as good.
That was a few years ago, results may be obsolete, of course.
