Built from AOSP Eclair stable branch (CM5 webkit is down)
Basically this should give a performance boost to most apps that display webpage elements

Advantages:
Enables animated GIFs (not sure how to fix colors though)
V8 JS Engine (as in Froyo)

Downsides:
RAM usage with webkit elements

Download:

MD5: 2EA563D3400B656D6D485E8A201CA50A

To install, replace existing libwebcore.so in /system/lib/

From recovery:
Code:
adb shell mount -a
adb push libwebcore.so /system/lib/
adb shell chmod 0644 /system/lib/libwebcore.so
adb shell reboot
Tested on HSG X5A (no g-sensor). Should work on Coby MID7005, MID7015, Augen Gentouch78, M701... Not sure what else...

Nandroid before flashing. If your it doesn't work with your device, your device will bootloop.

Startup after flashing will take longer than usual.

iPhone 4 scores 67, Nexus One on stock Froyo 287: Android 2.2 demolishes iOS4 in JavaScript benchmarks

Reference:
Get Eclair branch from AOSP Git
make with ANDROID_ANIMATED_GIF=true, JS_ENGINE=v8 for ARMv5TE

Add #include "SkColorPriv.h" to build properly

Confirmed. Does not work on the 2GB Haipad. Darn! A while back I was asking about the possibility of exactly this sort of webcore hack too.
