PL/V8 is interesting because it is very fast, sandboxed, and well
embedded with little overhead.

My experience with PL/Python and PL/Perl has not been thus, and
although they are handy if you want to break out and run system work,
they're not the kind of thing I'd consider for defining performant
operators with.

I feel PL/V8 has promise in that area.
