Titre : How Firefox Makes Your JavaScript Run Faster

Abstract : 

JavaScript performance has become increasingly important over the last several years, 
as the size of web applications have increased and as JavaScript has become
an attractive target for language translation, a sort of "bytecode for the web".  

This talk will discuss several of the techniques the JavaScript engine in Firefox uses 
to improve JavaScript performance.  We will also describe asm.js, a subset of JavaScript 
designed for efficient translation to machine code and suitable as a target for language translation.
