This project is such a great technological achievement for both the Webkit and LLVM communities. There are so many 'first times' in this project. This is the first time profile guided information is used inside the LLVM _JIT_. This is the first time the LLVM infrastructure supported self-modifying code. This is one of the very few successful projects that used LLVM to accelerate a dynamic language. This is the first time Webkit integrated their runtime (JITs and garbage collector) with an external JIT. This is the first JavaScript implementation that has advance features such as auto-vectorization. Congrats guys!
