But... you're still going to need garbage collection, unless you are only planning on supporting something like ASM.js. So there will still be application pauses for GC.
Also, you mention that you have support for JavaScript OO, but I notice the benchmarks don't exercise programmer-defined JavaScript objects/prototypes. Do you have numbers on its OO performance, or is that still something you're working on?
Finally, how do you handle type inference at the LLVM level? I assume you implemented some form of JIT compilation? I'd be interested to hear more!
