Why is jquery so slow ?

This has been discussed a great deal this week, especially in these threads:

Fundamentally, the answer is that JQuery has focused on other concerns than raw speed, mostly developer productivity and small footprint. The core team is going to look at alternatives, including relaxing the 20K limitation that has kept them from choosing some of the optimizations that would speed things up.

I'm guessing that as silly as such a test is in real-world work, it will drive a substantial change to the selector processing of JQuery. And that's the beauty of the competition among these frameworks.
