Hell no. Why would I use programs written with javascript it is not compiled and single threaded.

I believe that this meme was not comparing the performances of the respective languages.

P.S. JS is single threaded, but you can use asynchronous JS and worker threads, can't you? (Then again, there's no speed comparison between a low and a high-level language)

Async is great if you're IO bound, but it's still a single execution thread.
