Firefox tracks tail recursion support here:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=723959
And I just found a JS library which turns functions into tail recursive
ones with 1-4x time overhead:
http://glat.info/pub/tailopt-js/
So it might be possible to check for recursion support and just insert
this as a fallback for browsers which do not support proper tail
recursion (i.e. by implementing it as an identity function in those
which support proper tail recursion).
Best wishes,
Arne
