I wouldn't put node in with luajit. Luajit is about 4x faster than v8 JavaScript. So it's still in the slow category

Depends on the benchmark. Eg at the bottom of this page [1] can be found a simple fib(40) comparison of a few runtimes.

The Node time is at 2.6x the LuaJIT time, which I'd still consider in the same ballpark compared to eg the factor of 31x achieved by Python3.
