I know jsc runs on linux but I assumed that chrome-jsc doesn't.  I may be wrong
about that and it would be very useful if it does run.

I agree that a solution that improves both vms would be better but I don't know
enough about webkit to decide how best to implement it or decide if it should
be implemented at all.  V8's string representation happens to be particularly
well suited for this kind of caching because we allow transparent
representation changes; I don't consider this a hack but just taking advantage
of the hooks that are available in v8 and not, as far as I know, in jsc.
