HotSpots optimization and code generation is far superior than any other VM.
But that is kind of my point - there are advanced vms out there. I don't see why the web needs its own vm apart from them. All the differences I see are fairly minimal.

Similarly, I could go on forever about the stdlib that supports this bytecode (strings, threads, class loaders, etc) and why it's bad for the web too.
