I think clang was the problem. I was actually wondering if clang may build it faster but I see it wouldn't.
Jit is supposedly improving the performance but who knows :-)

when I was building it, I was using these flags:

I think the javascript used in polkit is not very complex and you may not see much of a difference.

However it seems the javascript embedded in html webpages are much more complicated, perhaps even javascript as part of browser code too, and this is much more cpu intensive.

I would suspect that duktape would be slower than JIT spidermonkey, but again with the short nonlooping script nature of access control, it won't matter too much ...

eccerr0r yes, I agree. I don't think polkit uses spidermonkey in 100% so even if duktape is slower, less advanced or even less stable, it doesn't really matter. I don't use firefox so switching to duktape shouldn't cause any inconveniences.
