No, Flash (hurk, blech). Scratch 2.0 is a Flash script.
In the meantime I'm working on improving Scratch 1.4 performance on the Pi; so far roughly twice as fast just by tidying some ugly code. Lots more meat to grind on in there, and then there is a translator VM to implement. And faster bitblt; so far it looks like we can get somewhere between 3 & 10 times as fast for that, too.
