If you're considering this, be aware that writing JS that takes advantage of new JS language features in v8 and not present in IE/Rhino is not considered bad form in the node.js community. Also, Rhino is ~50x slower than v8, which doesn't show up in microbenchmarks but probably will if you write any real code with this.
I'm waiting for Nashorn to try messing with vert.x/js but that still seems to be in stealh mode.
- olegp 14y agoLast I heard Rhino master was about 10x slower on average, not 50. For most real world applications it doesn't make much of a difference, since you spend most of the time waiting on I/O. Here are some benchmarks I put together comparing V8 (Node) to Rhino (RingoJS): https://github.com/olegp/common-node#benchmarks https://github.com/olegp/common-node#benchmarks
