comparing LABjs and $script.js

bench-LABjs.html

    <script src="../vendor/lab2.min.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
      var start = (+new Date);

      $LAB.setGlobalDefaults({BasePath:"../vendor/"});      

      // load a bunch of libraries (as separate $LAB chains so they each run ASAP)
      $LAB.script('yui-utilities.js').wait(function(){YAHOO.util.Dom.get('yui').innerHTML = '✓';});
      $LAB.script('jquery.js').wait(function(){$('#jquery').html('✓');
;});
      $LAB.script('mootools.js').wait(function(){document.id('mootools').innerHTML = '✓';});


      // this chain will wait for all the previously started loadings of the other chains
      $LAB.script('yui-utilities.js','yui-utilities.js','mootools.js')
      .wait(function() {

        // benchmark time!
        document.getElementById('total').innerHTML = (+new Date) - start;
        
      });
    </script>

bench-scriptjs.html

    <script src="../dist/script.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
      var start = (+new Date);

      
      // load a bunch of libraries
      $script.path = '../vendor/';
      $script('yui-utilities.js','yui',function(){YAHOO.util.Dom.get('yui').innerHTML = '✓';});

      $script.ready(['yui','jquery','moo'],function() {

    </script>

Also, see this followup, which shows the comparison in a more powerful way:
