Out of curiosity: does only having to target one OS make a difference here? Is it "easier" to get it to run fast? Any worries that you don't have compared to Firefox and Chrome, even though you purely work on the JS side of things?

I'm sorry I missed your comment earlier, but hopefully replying later is better than never :)

ChakraCore is cross-platform now so we no longer get the benefit of a single platform. However back when we were only Windows there were advantages, certainly, if only because all the work spent getting everything working on different OSes can instead be invested in improving performance.
