Is there a much better performance&amp;#x2F;power ration which can be achieved by ARM and not by POWER or SPARC?</text></comment>

Is there a new JIT compiler for Javascript in Firefox? Or is it a 3rd-party &amp;quot;add-on&amp;quot; that improves performance on some specific machine that this company makes?</text></comment>
