That said, one thing I've heard a lot from NativeScript TSC members building on top of QuickJS is that QuickJS has staggeringly low overhead for calling C functions. In fact, I was shown benchmarks in which it calls native functions faster than JS functions (perhaps it's easier to optimise because JS functions have complications like closure capture to worry about). I imagine this has conceptual overlap with how V8's Fast API works.
