It's also not that easy though, and blink's code generation is comparable to QEMU in 2007 or so. Even if TCG remains relatively basic, 2x better code generation then QEMU is still a strong claim.
I suspect that the reason why blink is faster in this experiment is not related to code generation, as I mentioned in another comment. Looking again at the screenshot, the 28 context switches (vs 0 for blink) might be a clue as well.
