This is one of those questions I love answering. :)

It turns out V8 is very well-optimized for loading JavaScript quickly, since that's exactly what it needs to do when loading a web site with a user waiting.

We're seeing average cold start times under 5ms.

There are some features in V8 to make loading a script even faster.

I'd be glad to connect over these features on twitter (same username). I implemented them.
