The 5% gains over minified code are impressive given that BinJS performs no AST manipulation. The BinJS prototype will be written in pure javascript I assume to speed its adoption?
Does BinJS perform AST transforms like `!0` to `true` which would be shorter in binary AST encoding? Or does it faithfully model the original code?
Yoric - the Binary AST size comparisons in the blog - was the original javascript already minified?
