Summary
Primarily JSC with regular spillover into WebCore, focused on performance: order-file/PGO build tooling, benchmark harness work, inline capacity tuning, and fast paths such as `Array.prototype.indexOf` on NodeList. No security or hardening commits — the pattern is throughput optimization, not defensive work. The recurring theme worth watching is cache-validity elision: skipping repeated DOM checks when no JS has run or the version is unchanged, dropping "unnecessary" watchpoints, persisting invalidation state across FunctionExecutables, and removing an exception check in `appendCallSetJSValueResult`. Optimizations that narrow when a guard fires are where stale-assumption bugs originate, so those invalidation conditions are the natural place to probe.
