Spent my weekend evenings in @babeljs code, trying to avoid it taking a slow-path in @v8js 🧐 Looks like 5-10% performance improvement now 🔥

And I finally found what I was looking for with the %KeyedGetProperty calls. 🔥 chromium-review.googlesource… crbug.com/v8/7014
I guess we could do that, with some help from @mathias. Note however that I wasn't looking for issues in @babeljs, but rather in @v8js.

Using scoped packages means that you will need to make a one time change of "@babel/env" instead of "env" in babelrc
Merged this, next Babel release (maybe rc) should be using scoped packages! (only a year later than intended!)

If you company depends on babel, you should consider donating too. You don't want to cry if the team stops working on it.
Also our highest monthly donation yet! (previously all only $100/month)
