I actually worked on this part of the Google Search infrastructure a long time ago. It's just JSC with a bunch of customizations and heuristics tuned for performance to run at a gigantic scale. There's a lot of heuristics to penalize bad sites, and I spent a ton of time debugging engine crashes on ridiculous sites.

This isn't accurate as of a number of years ago. They run headless chrome (as mentioned in the article). No more hacked up engine or JSC.

Do you know why they use JSC rather than the V8?

[esprehn]

They don't, but at one point you might do that for lower resource consumption.

Could we trouble you for a blog post? Super curious to read more about this.

Care to explain why you sold your soul? Working for an ad agency that is.

This line of questioning doesn't invite any kind of positive conversation. Why not ask more politely or even just change your question so it invokes thoughtful answers.
