Well, I think the argument was more about Webkit, then Chrome itself. Even flow here does not use a JS engine written from scratch - they use SpiderMonkey.

PS: As a webkit-based Chrome alternative, Brave browser does really well.

Interesting they choose Spidermonkey over Webkit's JS Engine .

I could sort of understand not choosing v8 which is now quite bloated as it is also optimising for lots of other things, but Spidermonkey?
