#2Can we just compile js to bytecode? It's silly making huge apps in a language that has to be parsed and compiled on the fly

Get to work on a Webassembly compiler and your wish might be granted.

That would reduce largely the JavaScript runtime size, but not the rendering engine and all the vendored third-party libraries.
On my Arch Linux installation, the node.js package takes about 18.45 MiB on disk. While I'd be glad if the various multiple electron runtimes slimmed down by 10-15 MiB, it wouldn't be much.

It works fine on my 2011 15" macbook pro with Firefox 54.0b4. I wonder if it is the high retina resolution thats the problem for you?

Well, how else are we supposed to get nice side channel / timing attacks?
