Methinks the speed gain was at the expense of cross browser support.

Not supporting the majority of installed browsers is an interesting approach to web application development.

They do seem to support older browsers: just as loadable modules. I am not opposed to the idea that the library runs different code on different browsers to get the job done if I get the same result and a performance gain out. On the other hand it's not code that I would want to debug.

It depends what your writing, and your target market. Most people using webapps/modern websites are doing so with good recent browsers.

Are you related to the project somehow? You seem to be vigorously defending it, but I see no affiliation mentioned (and your profile here is blank).

How is my above comment defending it? :/ I actually extremely rarely use any js libs. I'd rather just do it myself. And no I'm nothing to do with the project.
