My understanding is that JS running on Node is insanely fast compared to most other interpreted languages. This is because of how much work has been put into the V8 engine, especially the JIT compiler.
Based on this, it’s fair to put Node into a league above languages like Python and Ruby when considering performance.
This might have played a role in their decision to include Node.
