which version of plv8 are you using, and what sort of build issues on the Mac are you having?

It would be helpful if you added some units or whether smaller numbers mean better performance to your gist, as it stand it is not immediately obvious what the metrics represent.

I went through plv8 github issues and then noticed that I have v8 installed from homebrew, so running brew uninstall v8 fixed it for me!
