Second, we're working on a way to share the frameworks across all Cappuccino applications, so you load it the firs time, and it's cached from then on (like how Google hosts Prototype, Dojo, etc)
That's great, but I was thinking of actual compiled code, i.e., the x86 machine code that V8 generates. Keeping that around would also mean that the JavaScript compiler could run an optimizing pass over it in a background thread; and once optimized, the entire framework would stay that way and be optimized when the app is first launched.
In any case, this is an incredibly cool project, and I am most impressed by your mad skillz. :-)
