This probably needs far more attention than it's given.
A half-wild guess here is that because viruses uses various ways to hide themselves the anti-virus software probably scans W^X codepages on changes, so anything JIT compiled (all modern JS engines) will trigger a lot of spurious scans (kinda like how compiling and writing .exe files can grind turnaround times to a halt).
