I too thought JavaScript would be a slow operation. Its just not slow
enough to be noticible in real life tests (including multi-thousand
http requests).

Could you not make the pxProxyFactory object a global via _init() and
_free()? This would abviously require the soon-to-be-implemented
thread safety and you could potentally have some lock contention.
