           Summary: Common javascript libraries (e.g. jQuery) could be
                    built-in
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: JavaScriptCore
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: contact at nickshanks.com


Either by recognising certain URLs such as https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.1/jquery.min.js, JSC could load a bytecode representation of the library instead of loading the script, circumventing all the HTTP requests and JavaScript processing that would normally occur. These would ship with JSC.

And when encountering newer libraries (or perhaps any JS file), instead of caching the JavaScript file, the bytecode generated from it could be cached instead / as well.
