Question: V8

Please note, that V8 which compiles the JavaScript into native machine code, is not taken into account, as the compiled code is additionally heavily optimized

Question

Does this mean that it always has less or equal size with V8?

Background Info

I want to use this with nodejs to split outgoing requests into diff. requests to avoid request size exceeds maximum errors.

To answer that precisely, need to dig deeper into how optimizations are implemented.
Here is a high level description of Crankshaft, a compilation infrastructure for V8:
