Functions created with eval or new Function will get optimized (after a while, just like other functions -- nothing is optimized on first use).
That said, modifying prototypes after the fact tends to have a performance impact, because V8 makes optimizations (all over the place) based on the assumption that prototypes don't change much. When they do, optimized code built on such assumptions must be discarded. That may or may not be an issue for your use case, the only way to find out is to try.
