Got a link to that quote? I don't think I've seen it, interested to see the context.
Anyhow, a lot has changed in two years. dart2js now produces JS that, at least on the benchmarks on the Dart perf site, compare well with handwritten JS. This was not obviously possible two years ago! In fact back then I would also have been extremely skeptical that C++ compiled to JS would get close to native speed as well, but it has.
